'''Malaria kills more than 400,000 people every year. 90% of these people live in Africa and by far the most of them are children under the age of five. According to UNICEF, malaria accounts for about one in six of all childhood deaths in Africa.'''

In 1971, after reviewing 2,000 candidate recipes, ancient texts, and folk remedies, the Chinese pharmaceutical chemist Tu Youyou discovered the Malaria curing power of a plant named ''[[Artemisia annua]]''. It took until 2004 for her invention to enter the market as an approved medicine. Tu received the Nobel Prize in 2015 for her discovery. Today, the so-called Artemisinin Combined Therapies (ACTs) are the only malaria curing medicines that are approved by the World Health Organisation (WHO).
