In most cases, the first port of call would be a private pharmacy rather than a government health facility.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When they get there, they generally will not find ACTs there \u2013 and if they do, they\u2019ll find that they are so expensive that they can\u2019t afford them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>ACTwatch found that ACTs are 10 to 20 per cent more expensive in the private sector than the most commonly available anti-malarials.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Chevasse says that &#8220;this is ultimately what\u2019s leading to the fact that most children in Africa are either not being treated at all for malaria &#8211; or they\u2019re being treated with ineffective drugs.&#8221;<\/p>","protected":false},"template":"","related_countries":[],"related_projects":[],"news_category":[],"health-area":[],"capabilities-and-cross-cutting":[],"class_list":["post-3756","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 4.9.8 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"New malaria research unveiled today in Kenya finds that thousands of people die each year because they can&#039;t afford - or don&#039;t have access to - the most effective form of treatment, called artemisinin-based combination therapies or ACTs.
