2025The World is Losing the Fight Against Malaria: Could Drones and AI Help Defeat the Disease Once and For All?
The fight against malaria has been one of the great global health success stories of the 21st century, as efforts to defeat the disease have prevented an estimated 2.2 billion malaria cases and saved 12.7 million lives. But as Yosuke Kaneko at SORA Technology explains, this progress has stalled in recent years — and as global development funding dries up, there are worrying signs that the problem could get worse. He argues that this situation calls for an openness to new, tech-driven solutions, and explores how SORA Technology is using drones equipped with AI-powered cameras to target mosquito breeding sites and eradicate the disease at its source.
