Trachoma — a blinding disease that has been in the country for over 100 years — has officially been eliminated as a public health problem in Libya. This isn’t just a medical milestone. It’s a testament to extraordinary resilience. Years of political instability. Humanitarian crises. Strained health systems. Displaced populations. Pressure on the most basic necessities: clean water, sanitation, hygiene. And still, Libya eliminated the disease 💪 bit.ly/4ayjR2E
