7 followers · 4 posts · Server toot.io📅 Today is #WorldNTDday! According to the World Health Organisation, #NTDs affect over 1 billion people worldwide. #Snakebite envenoming is the only non-infectious NTD. Every year, around 5 million people are bitten by #snakes, of whom about 2 million are envenomed and up to 138,000 die as a result.

And with scabies now being a Neglected Tropical Disease, good to see a bit of momentum building about addressing this #NTD as a global #publichealth problem

Just joined, so thought some links to my recent work can help folk see what I am about. First up, a piece from me back in May in #TheLancet Regional Health Western #Pacific: 'Can #ivermectin mass drug administrations to control #scabies also reduce skin & soft tissue #infections ? Hospitalizations and #primarycare presentations lower after a large-scale trial in #Fiji'. #scabies #NTDs #dermatology #tropicalmedicine #globalhealth https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanwpc/article/PIIS2666-6065(22)00069-4/fulltext
