New Compounds Show Promise in Fighting Malaria

Scientists have found new ways to fight malaria, a disease spread by mosquitoes.

They've created compounds that can be put on bed nets to kill the malaria parasite inside the mosquitoes, instead of just the mosquitoes themselves.

This helps because mosquitoes are becoming resistant to current insecticides.

The new compounds work even if the mosquitoes are resistant.

These new compounds are cost-effective and stop the malaria parasite from growing in the mosquito, which means it can't spread the disease.

This could help reduce malaria cases, especially in places where the disease is common.
