Last-mile surveillance can end neglected diseases—study Schistosomiasis study in China suggests high-precision mapping can aid final push to elimination of the neglected disease.

New high-precision mapping tools could help identify where #schistosomiasis persists down to the household level, a 13-year study suggests.

This could help health programmes target the final pockets of transmission in elimination efforts.

Chile becomes the first country in the Americas to be verified by WHO for the elimination of leprosy WHO, together with the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), congratulates Chile for becoming the first country in the Americas – and the second globally – to be officially verified as having eliminated leprosy disease.

Congratulations Chile! It is the first country in the Americas to be verified by @WHO as having eliminated #leprosy.

More than 30 years without locally acquired cases reflect sustained surveillance, early diagnosis and access to treatment.
