The human cost of #NTDs is unacceptable. These preventable diseases cause around 120k deaths and 14.1m DALYs (years of healthy life lost) every year. This is a profound loss of human potential. The tools exist to stop this suffering. We must mobilise the resources to #BeatNTDs https://bit.ly/4pa7CPs

With Fiji's recent announcement on eliminating #trachoma, 58 countries have now eliminated at least one neglected tropical disease (NTD).
This is proof that progress is possible, but it’s stalling.
We must invest now: every $1 in #NTDs returns up to $25 in benefits.
Let’s finish the job.
