Realised that's a bit clickbait-y, so edited to add
Scientists have discovered a microbe that completely protects mosquitoes from being infected with malaria

Also, technically 'bad' news for malaria
My avatar was a scientific result that was later found to be 'mistaken' - I rarely claim to be 100% correct
ETA 5/8/20: I've been advised that the result was correct, it was the initial interpretation that needed to be withdrawn
Meta? I'd say so!

Mosquitos might be celebrating too.
