answer text <p>We tackle mosquito-borne diseases through bilateral programmes and funding to multilateral organisations to: (1) support research to develop new tools and approaches for disease control, (2) respond to outbreaks, and (3) improve access to vector-control tools like bed nets and insecticide residual sprays. We also build strong and resilient health systems that meet essential needs, and ensure countries are better able to prevent, detect, and treat all causes of ill health, including mosquito-borne diseases. In 2017 our funding to the Global Fund contributed towards the distribution of 197m mosquito nets in low income countries.</p> more like this
