"NEGLECTED TROPICAL DISEASES (NTDs) affect over a billion of the world's poorest people. More than 170,000 people die from NTDs each year, and many more suffer from blindness, disability, disfigurements, cognitive impairment and stunted growth. Yet NTDs are treatable and preventable, and the annual cost of treatment is low." - Book cover
