In a camp in Darfur, an infant develops a fever. All too often, the cause is malaria, a disease that flourishes in the chaos of conflict. Where health systems are disrupted, too many children are dying because care comes too late. Whether in Sudan, Yemen, Myanmar or the Sahel, the pattern is the same: Where bullets fly, malaria becomes even more deadly.
