CLEAN: Mosquitoes develop resistance as Burkina Faso battles malaria

Burkina Faso is to supply its entire population with more than six and a half million mosquito nets after research has shown many of the mosquitoes in the country have developed resistance to insecticides. The development fuels a malaria crisis in the West African nation -- over a disease which claims the life of an African child every 30 seconds, and has one million victims worldwide.
