about $150 million alone is being allocated to the PATH
Malaria Vaccine Initiative which is dispersing the money as
follows; $29 million will go to the Clinton Health Access
Initiative,$49 million will help researchers develop vaccines
for bacterial causes of diarrhea, and $60 million will go toward
the Drugs for Neglected Diseases Initiative. This is only the
money being sent to the PATH foundation which was funded
by Gates foundation.

have boosted funding into finding the cure of Malaria
by 30% which brings it just around $200 million
alone on just Malaria. Gates is very serious about
his fight against the killer disease. He stated while
speaking with the Malaria Vaccine Initiative, “We
must remain committed to the eradication of malaria,
small steps won’t get the job done. History shows
that the only way to stop malaria is to end it forever.”

years the Bill Gates Foundation has given over $30
billion towards research and development towards
the fight against Malaria.

designated $50 million to the recent fight against the
Ebola virus. This is a fight that Gates believes needs
to be fought by the whole world, he has gotten other
tech moguls to donate to the fight. Gates’ childhood
friend and Microsoft cofounder Paul Allen donated
$100 million, and Facebook founder Mark
Zuckerberg gave $25 million. Gates understands that
these donations are steps in the right direction, but
he still believes this is an uphill battle and has vowed
to give away 95% of his $81.6 billion net worth to
charity and other organizations for potential future
health of the world.
