Why the last cases of sleeping sickness will be the hardest to eliminate Pharmaceuticals and vector-control programmes have greatly diminished the once-widespread disease, but sustained effort will be needed to stamp out infection for good.

Sleeping sickness cases have dropped by 97.5% in 20 years, with fewer than 1K cases annually in Africa for 7 years.
💊 Acoziborole, a single-dose oral drug in development, could be key to sustain elimination.

A timeline titled "The Golden Age of Antibiotics" shows when each antibiotic drug class was first available for medical use, with example antibiotics labeled. Classes are color-coded by their source: actinomycetes, other bacteria, fungi, or synthetic. Milestones include the first antibiotics (arsphenamines in 1910), as well as the discovery of many actinomycetes-derived antibiotics, such as streptomycin, and sulfonamides, penicillins, and tetracyclines. Data: Hutchings, Truman, Wilkinson (2019). Created by Saloni Dattani for Our World in Data.

Many people talk about the "Golden Age of Antibiotics", but I hadn't seen it visualized properly.

Just how many types of antibiotics were discovered during that time?

So, I visualized it myself!
