What this amendment would do

SA 6524, submitted by Mrs. Shaheen, aims to add a new section to bill S. 4784. The purpose of this amendment is to require a report that analyzes the use of long-acting injectable preventative malaria medication.

The amendment requires the Secretary of State, working with the Commander of the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, to provide a report to the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations and the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.

The report must analyze the following:

  • The use of this medication through the Department of Defense's Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring and Research Program and the Department of State's Office of Infectious Diseases and Outbreak Response.

  • Which programs within the President's Malaria Initiative would benefit from the use of this medication.

  • How the Department of Defense and Department of State use the medication for members of the Armed Forces and diplomats serving in areas where malaria is endemic.
