the Affordable Medicine Facility–malaria endangers public health</b></font>
<br>
<br><font face="sans-serif">The Affordable Medicine Facility–malaria
has shown no evidence that it has saved the lives of the most vulnerable
or delayed drug resistance. Rather, this global subsidy has incentivised
medicine sales without diagnosis and shown no evidence that it has served
poor people. It poses a risk to public health and could skew investment
away from effective solutions. Evidence shows that a public-public partnership
between community health workers and primary health care facilities can
fight malaria and deliver on other public health outcomes. But will donors
listen to the evidence?</font>
