Declining funding and sharp regional disparities in worm #STH infections expose the limits of a one-size-fits-all approach. Kudos to @MutonoNyamai & team for this important research, & @Jomunji for shining a light on this issue in @TheStarKenya. the-star.co.ke/health/2026-02… #NTDs

In Rwanda, #STH remains a crucial yet often invisible public health problem, with #intestinalworms prevalence reaching up to 90% in some areas. In this story, our fellow @jboscombonigaba talks about how he's helping tackle the STH problem. am2ntd.org/news/rwandas-s… @CEMA_Africa

Zoonoses don't just affect animals, they are a direct threat to human health, especially in communities already burdened by Neglected Tropical Diseases #NTDs. From #Rabies to #KalaAzar, the overlap is real, and so is the urgency. #OneHealth is the only way we close the gap.

Happy Monday! Did you know ~60% of human infectious diseases originate from animals, & 75% of emerging diseases have an animal link (WHO)? Protecting human health is closely tied to animal & env health. Learn: rb.gy/9h6m4p #OneHealth #Zoonoses #GlobalHealth @AM2NTD

Still on #Kalaazar, this story outlines when the #VisceralLeishmaniasis was first reported in Kenya, how the spread continues, & why targeted control is the path to elimination. #VL #NTDs am2ntd.org/news/mapping-t…

Did you know that over 70 per cent of Kala Azar cases in Kenya are asymptomatic and are greatest contributors to spread of this disease, which if not treated, is 95 per cent fatal?

We appreciate @michollinga of @WillowHealthKe for spotlighting our study on Kenya’s fight against deadly #kalaazar, highlighting push for early diagnosis, community surveillance, and the country's control/elimination efforts. #NTDs @CEMA_Africa willowhealthmedia.org/hiding-in-plai…

Indeed, a powerful piece on why sustained investment in early detection, surveillance, and access to care is critical to tackling #Kalaazar in Kenya. Delayed diagnosis continues to cost lives. Read more: willowhealthmedia.org/hiding-in-plai…

Huge congratulations to Dr. Chuchu for successfully defending her #PhD! 🥳 Dr. Chuchu's research focused on understanding #AMR and #Rabies burden. Among her contributions to rabies elimination is this important paper on vaccine accessibility. #NTDs frontiersin.org/journals/micro…

CEMA-Africa@CEMA_Africa

Congratulations to #CEMA’s Dr. Veronicah Chuchu for successfully defending her PhD in Tropical & Infectious Diseases from @uonbi . Her research tackles one of the most urgent global health threats #AMR. Here’s to breaking barriers & shaping the #futureofhealth through research.

"The river looked pure. Beautiful. Harmless..." @JoyNthiwa talks about sanitation, poverty, stigma and hidden dangers of rivers and how the very act of survival can become a source of risk for contaminating #schistosomiasis. #NTDs #Bilharzia @joynthiwa03/the-river-behind-grandmas-farm-was-not-just-water-it-was-the-heart-of-the-village-bae1b1c308a5" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@joynthiwa03/t…

Against the odds, Libya has eliminated #Trachoma as a public health problem. This milestone shows that through collaboration, prevention, early detection, and control, #NTDs can be defeated.

World Health Organization (WHO)@WHO

Solidarity wins! Trachoma elimination status in Libya is a testimony of what could be achieved when Ministry of Health and WHO teams deliver as one. Throughout the years, WHO in Libya provided extensive technical and operational support to prevent, detect and control diseases, and ensure the best attainable health and wellbeing in the country.
