The RTS,S Malaria Vaccine

The RTS,S/AS01 (RTS,S) malaria vaccine is one of two safe and effective vaccines recommended by WHO to prevent malaria in children. If implemented widely, malaria vaccines could save tens of thousands of lives each year. Demand for malaria vaccines is high. At least 28 countries in Africa plan to introduce a malaria vaccine, with wider implementation starting in early 2024.
