This fight has timelines(2030), but accomplishing the task by next years would be welcomed.

This #WorldNTDDay, we are reminded to UNITE with other researchers, governments and professionals as we generate evidence that drives action. By translating research into practice, we empower implementers to ACT, bringing us closer to our goal to ELIMINATE #NTDs.
