== Interesting new development? ==
 
[https://academictimes.com/first-vaccine-to-fully-immunize-against-malaria-builds-on-pandemic-driven-rna-tech/ First vaccine to fully immunize against malaria builds on pandemic-driven RNA tech], The Academic Times. I have no idea if this is enough to add something to the article, and neither my scientific competence nor my English level allow me to interven in the article directly. [[Special:Contributions/2A02:A03F:6129:CF00:31E8:C045:BDE7:F6FB|2A02:A03F:6129:CF00:31E8:C045:BDE7:F6FB]] ([[User talk:2A02:A03F:6129:CF00:31E8:C045:BDE7:F6FB|talk]]) 08:21, 28 February 2021 (UTC)
 
I added a section on that titled "saRNA vaccine against PMIF" as it does not seem to have a recognised name yet. [[User:Tim333|Tim333]] ([[User talk:Tim333|talk]]) 10:43, 28 February 2021 (UTC)

== Merge RTS,S into this article? ==
 
{{Archive top|result=Strong consensus to '''not merge''' these articles. [[User:Remagoxer|<span style="color: #0a826b;">'''Rema'''</span><span style="color: #c91f0c;">'''goxer'''</span>]] [[User talk:Remagoxer|<sup>(talk)</sup>]] 17:36, 4 May 2022 (UTC)|status=Not merged}}
It seems like [[RTS,S]] was tagged with a [[Template:Merge to|merger template]] directing here. Should we go ahead with this? (Personally, I think the two subjects are sufficiently distinct to warrant remaining separate but still.) Pinging {{ping|Whywhenwhohow|p=,}} who tagged the other article.

:(To elaborate on my point - while RTS,S is currently the only ''approved'' vaccine, several other vaccines (including [[Malaria vaccine#Nanoparticle enhancement of RTS,S|an enchanced version of RTS,S]]) are under development/have been looked into. RTS,S is also quite clearly notable.)

* '''Oppose''' The two subjects are sufficiently distinct to warrant remaining.

== 'Plasmodium is a genus; Plasmodium falciparum is a species ==
 
Article currently reads -
 
:The ''Plasmodium'' species has a very high rate of replication, much higher than that actually needed to ensure transmission in the parasite's lifecycle
 
.
 
- ''Plasmodium'' is a '''genus'''; ''Plasmodium falciparum'' is a '''species''' within the genus ''Plasmodium''.
 
and
 
- The source cited for this section doesn't seem to have the info about the notably high rate of replication.
 
.
 
So [A] We should give a better cite for this info.
 
[B] We should clarify whether we're saying that all ''Plasmodium'' show this high rate of replication, or only the species ''Plasmodium falciparum''.

==R21 promotion==
This reads in part like it was written by Oxford/Serum Institute. Phase III results are not yet public, so it's impossible to say that the vaccine is the most effective yet. Needs a rewrite for objectivity.

:''A phase III trial with 4,800 children across four African countries was reported in November 2022, demonstrating vaccine efficacy of 74% against a severe malaria episode.''

== Sterilizing immunity? ==
 
why was my edit removed ? Malaria vaccination does not provide sterilizing immunity? Or am I mistaken? [[User:Ansgarjohn|Ansgarjohn]] ([[User talk:Ansgarjohn|talk]]) 11:14, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
