Malaria programme funding from Global Fund, other donors and domestic governments: aggregated across endemic low- and middle-income countries, by calendar year: (a) 41 countries in sub-Saharan Africa; (b) 49 countries outside sub-Saharan Africa; and by individual country cumulated over 2003 to 2009, with countries sorted by total amount of Global Fund funding over 2003 to 2009: (c) in sub-Saharan Africa; (d) outside sub-Saharan Africa. Note to Figure 1: Countries with a >0 $ funding level vary among the years; over 2003–2009 summed, out of 90 countries, 16 countries had no Global Fund funding; 14 had no other-donor funding, and eight no domestic funding. From government malaria programme budgets reported to WHO by end-2011 [3], those of Burundi in 2003–2006 and Tanzania in 2008–9 were excluded as they were grossly inconsistent with budgets reported by those countries in neighbouring years.
