Why Funding for Neglected Tropical Diseases Should Be a Global Priority.

Abstract

Neglected tropical diseases affect >1 billion of the world's poorest persons. Control programs range from near-elimination (dracunculiasis) to increasing prevalence (dengue and cutaneous leishmaniasis). These are some of the most cost-effective public health interventions and should be a global priority.
