Today for the first time, the global community is recognising #WorldChagasDiseaseDay .
#ChagasDisease is referred to sometimes as a 'silent disease', but every year 6-7 million mainly poor people contract the disease and over 10,000 people die.

#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.
Chagas disease affects approximately 6M people, mainly in Latin America. Learn more about how Novartis is reimagining the fight against Chagas disease together with our partners. #WorldChagasDay #NovartisGlobalHealth #WorldChagasDiseaseDay
