FOUND: Swri - What They Never Told You

In 2025, Harvard University developed a chemical coating for insecticide-treated bed nets that blocks malaria parasites inside mosquitoes instead of killing the insects. It produced a breakthrough that could fight malaria without increasing insecticide resistance

Scientists have discovered novel compounds that prevent the transmission of malaria parasites in mosquitoes. These innovative chemicals can be applied to bed nets without causing insecticide resistance. When infected mosquitoes come into contact with the treated netting, the parasites are eliminated. This advancement represents a promising new approach to tackling…
