I recently spent three years driving around Africa. Chloroquine is still a very common anti-malarial in many parts of the continent.

Name specific countries, to the best of my knowledge, it's no longer in use because malaria has become resistant to Chloroquine.

And I was glad to see it go out of use cos it caused crazy itching in many people.

Touching water was like pouring fuel on fire.

Anyway, even though I hated it, Chloroquine really worked while it worked.
