Will malaria ever go away?

I'm AS (genotype, sickle-cell carrier) and I think I have pretty strong malaria resistance - I usually end up with flu symptoms instead of the full-blown fever.  Lucky.  You? 

"Since 2000, malaria deaths around the world have fallen by nearly half. The steepest drop has come in sub-Saharan Africa, where 90% of fatalities occur. Malaria still kills around 450,000 people each year (see chart 1)—most of them children in Africa."
