Good to see Leishmania species on the WHO list of top priorities for vaccine development - investment needed, however, to get promising candidate vaccines into the clinic.

It appears #NIAID will shutter the genome data base we all use daily. This strikes me as a significant mistake that may well endanger much of our global progress. @BSPparasitology @AS_Para @ASTMH @TrendsParasitol @AmSocParasit @parasitesrule @PiParasitology

Very concerned about message popping up on TrytrypDB: "We encourage you to download any information you rely upon [...] as soon as possible".

We and many others absolutely rely on these data!

What will remain after 14 September? https://t.co/edSe9rL7hM

Neglected tropical diseases, or NTDs, affect more than 1 billion people around the world, especially in poor and marginalized communities.  

But NTDs are preventable, and in many cases, can be eliminated completely from countries.

This #WorldNTDDay, @WHO calls on countries to unite and act to eliminate NTDs. #HealthForAll
