It comes after successful pilot campaigns in Kenya, Ghana and Malawi - where the vaccine caused a 13% drop in deaths of children of eligible age, says Unicef.

While the rollout is undoubtedly a relief and a life-saver, its relatively low efficacy rate means that it is not a “silver bullet”, argues Willis Akhwale at End Malaria Council Kenya.
