In the year 2014 India reported 1.10 million cases of malaria and 561 deaths.
Thyme oil, peppermint oil, clove oil among others have been known to repel malaria-causing mosquitoes.
One of the goals of WHO's 2016-2030 programme against malaria is to eliminate the disease in at least 10 countries by 2020.
Eating the right foods and avoiding harmful ones can speed up recovery from malaria. Focus on light, nutrient-rich meals and steer clear of caffeine, junk food, and anything that strains digestion.
Relevant information collected from these countries will then be put to use to decide the wider application of the vaccine.
