RTS,S malaria vaccine - the first of it's kind

After the following news clip from RT:
Some highlights :
+ Director General of WHO claims that is "Safe and effective"
How they measure it ?
WHO website says:
- "The vaccine is estimated to save 1 life for every 200 children vaccinated" (link at the end of post);
- "Good safety profile" and they state "The vaccine’s safety has been demonstrated after more than 4.5 million vaccine doses have been given to nearly 1.5 million children." ( reminded of Covid style efficacy statements)

From reading the SOTT article (link at the end)
- "Comment: Note that these damning criticisms about the vaccine and this WHO-backed experiment are being made by researchers in the field, and it's likely they're risking their careers in doing so."

From Assessing the safety, impact and effectiveness of RTS,S/AS01E malaria vaccine following its introduction in three sub-Saharan African countries: methodological approaches and study set-up - Malaria Journal
- "Many low and lower-middle income countries where malaria is endemic have little or no data on background incidence rates of rare diseases such as those that may be reported as adverse events following immunization." (I understand: as long the data is not gathered, they can claim whatever they want)

+ "there is a special assignment process for the countries most in need"
( I interpreted this sentence: let's get rid first of the most undesirables -the poor, and then continue with the rest of targeted population)

IMO, the following are not selling points for the first malaria vaccine:
* Financing for the pilot programme has been mobilized through an unprecedented collaboration among three key global health funding bodies: Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance
* The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation provided catalytic funding for late-stage development of RTS,S between 2001 and 2015.
* it's "free" - "GSK is donating the RTS,S/AS01E vaccine doses necessary to the MVIP (up to 10 million doses)"


 
It has been around two decades since the last localized cases of malaria were detected in the United States. And now, suddenly, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is warningthat the infectious disease is back, having recently reemerged in Florida and Texas.

We are told that four people in the Sunshine State and one person in the Lone Star State were recently treated for malaria, though the agency says the cases between the two states are unrelated. So, where did this new outbreak of malaria come from, and how is the government planning to deal with it?

Since 1951, malaria has been considered eradicated from the U.S. Spraying operations involving DDT that commenced in 1947 are credited with ridding the country of this plague.

Prior to 1947, there were about 15,000 cases of malaria in the Southeast alone. After the spraying operations, there were none to speak of, and most people ended up forgetting the word malaria entirely.
Fast-forward a number of decades and here we are once again dealing with malaria in America. Had DDT not been banned in the 1970s, some say malaria could have been eradicated globally, but now it is back.

"Malaria could be eradicated worldwide by now if not for the global ban of DDT in the 1970s," claims The New American's Rebecca Terrell. "That came after a vicious, unsubstantiated smear campaign in the 1960s by radical environmentalists. They spread lies about DDT thinning bird eggshells, killing humans, and causing cancer."

"Though all allegations against DDT have been proven wrong, the United Nations Environment Program still classifies the pesticide as one of 12 'Persistent Organic Pollutants,' effectively banning it in most countries."

Is the new malaria outbreak divine retribution for Western interest depriving the third world of effective insecticides?​

Whatever your views on DDT, we are once again seeing malaria reemerge in the U.S. And one wonders if the government has anything to do with it, seeing as how we narrowly escaped a three-year "pandemic" that all evidence seems to suggest was cooked up in a lab.

Are governments or government-backed entities once again unleashing a bioweapon, this time as malaria, in order to bring about yet another "health crisis" for which extreme measures will be deployed?

The CDC estimates that about 2,000 cases of malaria emerge in the U.S. annually, though these are primarily cases involving international travelers who brought it back with them from a third-world country. The new localized cases are different in that there is no known international link.

What this suggests is that malaria is spreading within the U.S., possibly from all those genetically modified (GMO) mosquitoes that Bill Gates was promising to release – and in Florida, no less.

Some, including Dr. Donald Roberts and Richard Tren, authors of the book The Excellent Powder: DDT's Political and Scientific History, believe that this could be some form of divine retribution for past malfeasances.

"European nations and the United States used insecticides to rid themselves of disease and then pulled up the ladder, denying Africans, Asians and Latin Americans the benefits of those same insecticides," Roberts and Tren write in their book.

The DDT ban is linked to the resurgence and spread of not just malaria but also typhus, yellow fever, and dengue fever. Even the 2016 Zika outbreak is linked to what Terrell describes as the system's "stubborn allegiance to DDT's unscientific prohibition."

What do you think? Was DDT a safe and effective tool for eliminating malaria and other infectious diseases, or is it dangerous and better off banned?

Quinine​

Scientific Name(s): Cinchona calisya Wedd., Cinchona ledgeriana Moens ex Trim. (yellow cinchona), Cinchona succirubra Pav. ex Klotsch (red cinchona)
Common Name(s): China bark, Cinchona bark, Fever tree, Jesuit's bark, Peruvian bark, Quina-quina, Red bark

Clinical Overview​

Use​

Quinine has been used for the treatment of malaria and associated febrile states, leg cramps caused by vascular spasm, internal hemorrhoids, varicose veins, and pleural cavities after thoracoplasty.

Dosing​

Quinine has been widely studied as an antimalarial, and has been used at doses of 325 mg to 1 g as the sulfate salt. Classical doses of the crude bark were approximately 1 g.

Uses​

Hydroxychloroquine is used to prevent or treat malaria caused by mosquito bites. The United States Center for Disease Control provides updated guidelines and travel recommendations for the prevention and treatment of malaria in different parts of the world. Discuss the most recent information with your doctor before traveling to areas where malaria occurs.This medication is also used to treat certain auto-immune diseases (lupus, rheumatoid arthritis). It belongs to a class of medications known as disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). It can reduce skin problems in lupus and prevent swelling/pain in arthritis.Hydroxychloroquine is not recommended for coronavirus infection, also known as COVID-19, unless you are enrolled in a study. Talk to your doctor about the risks and benefits.

Treating Lupus with Anti-Malarial Drugs​

  • Hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil)
  • Chloroquine (Aralen)
  • Quinacrine (Atabrine)

What are anti-malarial drugs, and why are they used to treat lupus?​

Hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil), chloroquine (Aralen), and quinacrine (Atabrine) are medications that were originally used to prevent or treat malaria. However, during World War II it was also found that these medications were effective in treating the symptoms of lupus. Specifically, anti-malarial medications have shown to improve muscle and joint pain, skin rashes, pericarditis (inflammation of the lining of the heart), pleuritis (inflammation of the lining of the lung), and other lupus symptoms such as fatigue and fever. These medications may also prevent lupus from spreading to certain organs, such as the kidney and central nervous system (your brain and spinal cord) and may help to reduce flares by as much as 50%. Plaquenil and other anti-malarials are the key to controlling lupus long term, and some lupus patients may be on Plaquenil for the rest of their lives. For this reason, you can think of anti-malarials as a sort of “lupus life insurance.”
 
Uperios, please do not just put a link to something without saying what it is about.

The above article is about Cameroon giving infants 6 months and up a malaria vaccine. It's all for their benefit, of course.
The country plans to give the vaccine — known as Mosquirix (RTS,S/AS01) — to about 250,000 children by the end of 2025. The GlaxoSmithKline-produced shot, recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO), requires four doses and provides protection against severe illness caused by one type of malaria parasite.

Protection wanes over several months.
Of course it does. More death shots?
