An international partnership yesterday unveiled an ambitious long-term plan to rapidly reduce malaria deaths and perhaps eventually eradicate the disease, which kills some 1 million people a year, mostly children in Africa. The Roll Back Malaria (RBM) Partnership, which unites governments, nongovernmental organizations, international agencies, and private groups, says its new Global Malaria Action Plan (GMAP) could save 4.2 million lives by 2015.
