Press Release Body = A spokesperson for Creston Advertising LLC announces that the New York based marketing and branding agency has successfully completed the logo design for its Medinostics LLC client, a manufacturer of medical test kits. The agency has also put the finishing touches on package designs for the Medinostics Malaria Test Kits and the Medinostics Aids Test Kits. These kits, the first two of 28 kits, are slated for distributed to third-world countries.
Worldwide, HIV/AIDS and malaria contribute to the large and growing causes of death and disease burden, especially in sub-Saharan Africa,\" researchers write. HIV is the leading cause of death worldwide (among those ages 15-59), UNAIDS - 2006 Report on the Global AIDS Epidemic. Malaria kills more than a million people worldwide each year-90 percent of them in Africa; 70 percent children under the age of five.
A recent report by two United Nations agencies-the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Children\'s Fund (UNICEF) #151; outlines the enormity of Africa\'s malaria problem and calls on the global community to step up its efforts to combat the disease. Every year, nearly 1,500 cases of malaria are reported in the United States. Most of these cases occur in US residents who become infected while traveling abroad. Up to ten of these malaria patients will die each year. However, practically all these deaths are preventable.
Diane T. Creston, president and creative director of Creston Advertising LLC states, \"We\'re pleased with our involvement in this design project. Our designs and packaging play a small part in the life saving work that Medinostics is involved with. Without the tests, there can be no treatment or intervention, so this is the first step and one that we are proud to contribute to.\"
