en-us	Severe disruptions to insecticide-treated net campaigns and in access to antimalarial medicines could lead to a doubling in the number of malaria deaths in sub-Saharan Africa this year compared to 2018, according to a new modelling analysis released by WHO and partners ahead of World Malaria Day (25 April). 
zh-cn	根据世卫组织及其合作伙伴在世界防治疟疾日（4月25日）前发布的一项新的模型分析，与2018年相比，今年撒哈拉以南非洲的疟疾死亡人数可能会增加一倍。 

en-us	WHO urges countries to move fast and distribute malaria prevention and treatment tools at this stage of the COVID-19 outbreak in sub-Saharan Africa, and to do their utmost to safely maintain these essential malaria control services. 
zh-cn	世卫组织敦促各国在撒哈拉以南非洲暴发2019冠状病毒病（COVID19）疫情的目前阶段，快速行动并分发疟疾预防和治疗工具，同时尽最大努力安全地维持这些基本的疟疾控制服务。 

en-us	The analysis considers nine scenarios for potential disruptions in access to core malaria control tools during the pandemic in 41 countries, and the resulting increases that may be seen in cases and deaths.  
zh-cn	该分析考虑到了41个国家在大流行期间可能在获得疟疾控制核心工具方面出现中断的九种情况，以及由此可能导致的病例和死亡数上升。 

en-us	Under the worst-case scenario, in which all insecticide-treated net (ITN) campaigns are suspended and there is a 75% reduction in access to effective antimalarial medicines, 
zh-cn	在最糟糕的情况下，所有药浸蚊帐运动都将暂停，有效抗疟药物的获取将减少75%， 

en-us	the estimated tally of malaria deaths in sub-Saharan Africa in 2020 would reach 769 000, twice the number of deaths reported in the region in 2018. This would represent a return to malaria mortality levels last seen 20 years ago. 
zh-cn	这样到2020年，撒哈拉以南非洲的疟疾死亡总数估计将达到76.9万，这是 该地区2018年报告死亡人数的两倍，意味着疟疾死亡率将回到20年前的水平。 

en-us	According to the World malaria report 2019, sub-Saharan Africa accounted for approximately 93% of all malaria cases and 94% of deaths in 2018.  
zh-cn	根据《2019年世界疟疾报告》，2018年，撒哈拉以南非洲约占所有疟疾病例的93%，死亡人数的94%。 

en-us	More than two-thirds of deaths were among children under the age of five. 
zh-cn	五岁以下儿童占到死亡数的三分之二以上。 

en-us	A window of opportunity 
zh-cn	机会之窗 

en-us	To date, the number of reported cases of COVID-19 in sub-Saharan Africa has represented only a small proportion of the global total, though cases are increasing every week.  
zh-cn	迄今为止，尽管COVID19病例数每周都在增加，但撒哈拉以南非洲报告的病例数仅占全球总数的一小部分。 

en-us	This means that countries across the region have a critical window of opportunity to minimize disruptions in malaria prevention and treatment and save lives at this stage of the COVID-19 outbreak.  
zh-cn	这意味着，在COVID19疫情的目前阶段，该地区各国仍有一个重要的机会窗口，可以最大限度地减少疟疾防治活动的中断并拯救生命。 

en-us	Mass vector control campaigns should be accelerated, while ensuring that they are deployed in ways that protect health workers and communities against potential COVID-19 transmission.  
zh-cn	应加快开展大规模媒介控制运动，同时确保以保护卫生工作者和社区免受潜在COVID19传播影响的方式进行部署。 

en-us	WHO and partners commend the leaders of Benin, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Sierra Leone and Chad for initiating ITN campaigns during the pandemic.  
zh-cn	世卫组织及其合作伙伴赞扬贝宁、刚果民主共和国、塞拉利昂和乍得的领导人在大流行期间发起的药浸蚊帐运动。 

en-us	Other countries are adapting their net distribution strategies to ensure households receive the nets as quickly and safely as possible.  
zh-cn	其他国家正在对蚊帐分发战略作出调整，以确保家庭尽快并尽可能安全地得到蚊帐。 

en-us	Preventive therapies for pregnant women and children must be maintained.  
zh-cn	必须继续维持孕妇和儿童的预防性治疗。 

en-us	The provision of prompt diagnostic testing and effective antimalarial medicines are also essential to prevent a mild case of malaria from progressing to severe illness and death.  
zh-cn	提供及时的诊断检测和有效的抗疟药物对于防止轻症疟疾发展为严重疾病甚至死亡也至关重要。 

en-us	WHO and partners have developed guidance to ensure that those suffering from malaria can safely receive the care they need within the package of essential health services to be delivered in COVID-19 settings.  
zh-cn	世卫组织和合作伙伴制定了指南，以确保疟疾患者能够通过在COVID-19环境下提供的一揽子基本保健服务安全地获得所需的护理。 

en-us	Tailoring malaria interventions in COVID-19 response includes guidance on the prevention of infection through vector control and chemoprevention, testing, treatment of cases, clinical services, supply chain and laboratory activities.
zh-cn	在应对COVID19疫情的同时调整疟疾干预措施包括通过媒介控制和化学预防、检测、病例治疗、临床服务、供应链和实验室活动预防感染的指导。
