It's #WorldChagasDiseaseDay
#ChagasDisease  has the most disproportionate impact among Latin America's poorest communities but it is increasingly detected elsewhere. With an estimated 6-7M people infected globally & high mortality it is a significant public health threat.

The launch of WINS, Women In Neglected Tropical Diseases, initiative marks a new female-led chapter in the fight against #NTDs ! Aiming to ensure women, who are often disproportionately affected, are involved in scientific research & health policies to end NTDs. #NotoNTDs

Succinctly put by Dr Socé Fall - DrMed, PhD, FFPH

'Together we can overcome these diseases of poverty and build a world where everyone, regardless of where they live, has the opportunity to lead healthy and productive lives.'
