> The vaccine doesn't work that well. As your article [4] says

It does not say that.

And in any case, as we should all very well know by now, vaccines don't have to be 100% effective at disease prevention to be effective at disease spread reduction, especially at scale.

But, lets grant the point: Fine. Use some of that $5b annual spend to fund other preventatives.

Oops bad punctuation - I should have had a colon. The text after the > is cut and paste from the article. From wikipedia "fourth dose extends the protection for another 1–2 years. The vaccine reduces hospital admissions from severe malaria by around 30%" So it's a helps a bit situation rather than just vaccinate everyone and malaria is over.
