\n \n \n \nBlog by Rima Shretta in the Centre for Tropical Medicine & Global Health (Nuffield Department of Medicine). \r\n\r\nAs the COVID-19 pandemic continues its path to LMICs, its impact is likely to be even more devastating, potentially reversing recent gains made in the management of other communicable diseases. Of particular concern is the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on malaria. COVID-19 has been slow to arrive and spread across Africa; nevertheless, there are many reasons to be concerned about malaria within the current context of the COVID-19 pandemic.

\n \n \n \nDepartment of Physiology, Anatomy & Genetics (DPAG) scientists develop single-cell oxygen saturation imaging to study oxygen handling by red blood cells. New physiological techniques that measure the blood's oxygen saturation are particularly important in light of the current pandemic, as COVID-19 patients present an abnormally low concentration of oxygen in the blood.
