Percentage of children aged < 5 years with fever in malaria-risk areas being treated with effective antimalarial drugs. The indicator reports on receiving any anti-malarial medicine and includes all antimalarial medicines, such as chloroquine, that may be less effective due to widespread resistance and treatment failures. Data from nationally-representative household surveys, including Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys (MICS), Demographic Health Surveys (DHS) and Malaria Indicator Surveys (MIS), are compiled in the UNICEF global databases. The data are reviewed in collaboration with Roll Back Malaria (RBM) partnership, launched in 1998 by the World Health Organization (WHO), the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the World Bank.
