Malaria is a large health concern in this African country. Forty-four percent of outpatient visits are accredited to the disease and the illness takes the lead as the number one cause of death of the country’s children aged five and under. When the U.S. funded and launched the President’s Malaria Initiative in 2005 in an attempt to reduce global cases, Benin was one of fifteen countries to benefit from the strategy.
