#BugTweetChat @NTDResearch The WHO recommends deworming adolescent girls annually during HPV vaccination and women during pregnancy and lactation, to reduce STH-related morbidity in women of reproductive age. What lessons can we take home aiming to achieve the #NTD2030roadmap?

#BugTweetChat @NTDResearch Let's bring down the worms! The overall decrease in prevalence of soil-transmitted #helminths and schistosomes is testament to the intensive efforts Ethiopia has made to eliminate them. What are the next steps to 'bring down the worms'? #BeatNTDs

#BugTweetChat @NTDResearch Back again to #schistosomiasis with another question. Can we achieve the @WHO goals of morbidity control and elimination of #Schistomoma haematobium by using the current guidelines? Are they enough? #BeatNTDs

#BugTweetChat @NTDResearch Facial cleanliness is key for the #trachoma elimination strategy. #WASH is critical for NTD control & prevention. Reliable, standard, practical measures of face washing are needed. How should we measure face washing in trachoma elimination programs?

Facial cleanliness is a key component of the SAFE strategy to #endtrachoma. However, as @WHO/@NTD_NGOs WASH/NTD toolkit states, the clean face indicator is “…investigational, requiring further research to confirm its programmatic relevance, repeatability, utility and/or safety."

In 1897, trachoma became the 1st disease to be classified as "loathsome" by the US Government. Since then, the US has taken a lead role to #endtrachoma, much of which is thanks to Pres. Jimmy Carter, who today celebrates his 96th year. Happy birthday! trachomacoalition.org/news-b…
