1.5 billion. That is the number of people still at risk of neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), simply because they live in poor, remote or marginalized communities. This is unacceptable. We must #beatNTDs & #LeaveNoOneBehind worldntdday.org @RLMglobalhealth @WHO @COR_NTD

At the end of the day, neglected tropical diseases are diseases of neglected people. We know what needs to be done. Now we need the political & financial investment to finish the job. #BeatNTDs @RLMGlobalHealth worldntdday.org

Today is the first-ever #WorldNTDDay! Treatments for neglected tropical diseases often remain ineffective, highly toxic, unavailable, or unaffordable. Innovative R&D 💡 🔬 and partnerships 🤝 are key to #beatNTDs and end the neglect.

Why make 30 January an official World NTD Day? Because we need an annual, sustainable milestone to mobilize greater attention, action & investment to #BeatNTDs, particularly in the countries and communities most directly affected. #EB146

By definition, neglected tropical diseases need more attention & awareness. For the 1.5 billion people at risk, officially establishing #WorldNTDDay on 30 Jan ensures an annual milestone to hold ourselves accountable to #BeatNTDs. #EB146

To #beatNTDs, we must do two things at once: strengthen health systems to reach everyone with solutions we have & increase investments to find the solutions we don’t. #WorldNTDDay worldntdday.org
