Trends in population growth, malaria cases, malaria case incidence, and all-cause child mortality (ACCM) in 24 PMI-focused sub-Saharan African countries from 2005 through 2019 (coinciding with PMI support). ACCM represents deaths from all causes among children younger than 5 years per 1000 live births (source: United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund [UNICEF] modeled data through 2019).⁶ Malaria cases represent the annual number of malaria cases (source: modeled data from the 2020 World Malaria Report).⁷ Malaria incidence represents the annual malaria cases per 1,000 population (source: modeled data from the 2020 World Malaria Report).⁷ Population represents the population at risk for malaria (source: modeled data from the 2020 World Malaria Report).⁷
