Repost from @opspaho • Leprosy, dengue, leishmaniasis, schistosomiasis, dog-mediated human rabies, scabies, Chagas disease, intestinal parasites and trachoma are some of the more than 20 pathologies present in the region 🌎 – where they are also known as neglected infectious diseases – afflicting more than 200 million people at risk. Interruptions to neglected tropical diseases interventions and elimination programs in the Americas 🌎 from the COVID-19 pandemic may delay eliminating or controlling some of these diseases beyond the timelines proposed pre-pandemic.
