There are 228 million cases of malaria worldwide every year, many of them fatal. For this reason, governments, international organisations and the UN spend billions trying to stop the mosquito-borne disease that has plagued humanity since the dawn of time.

This week on Beyond the Headlines, host James Haines-Young speaks to Timothy Winegard, author of The Mosquito: A Human History of Our Deadliest Predator, and Jeremy Herren, lead researcher at the International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology in Nairobi, about humanity's battle with malaria.
