We Must Unite And Fight The Troubling Epidemic Of Neglected Tropical Diseases (Ndt’s) – Ms. Paris Keswani

 February 15: Neglected Tropical Diseases (Ndts), It Is Our Collective Responsibility As We Get Ready To Celebrate Valentine’s Day. The United Nations estimates that over 1.45 billion people in the world require NDT intervention. It has been ascertained that NDTs disproportionately affect and kill the poor and unfortunate among us. Since the global consciousness of this disease has been scanty at best, I have taken it upon myself to acquaint you with the devastating effects this disease is having on vulnerable populations around the world daily.

NDTs affect, disable and kill over 170,000 people per year. Effects from the most lethal NDTs include, but is not limited to deformed legs, blindness, swollen neck, extremely swollen legs, and of course excruciating pain which leads to social isolation, depression and suicide.

What is exactly then are NDTs? And how can we help to become a catalyst in its total eradication? NDTs are diseases commonly found in several countries in Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
