Sexual & reproductive health rights are key for universal health coverage. #UHC means everyone, including women & girls, can access health services without discrimination or financial hardship. Read how NTDs affect women and girls: https://t.co/B6pCZ1oZfs #UHCDay #HealthForAll

[LondonNTDResearch @NTDResearch]

Integrating NTDs into routine health services both sustains progress to #beatNTDs and strengthens systems to respond to other health challenges. Read @TrachomaControl’s blog to learn how programs to #endtrachoma are contributing to #healthforall. https://t.co/B34cHjpo5F

[Global Schistosomiasis Alliance @elimin8schisto]

The success of #schistosomiasis control is dependent on high treatment coverage AND compliance. New @NTDResearch explores why compliance may be a better indicator of how well MDA is implemented. Read more in @bugbittentweets #beatNTDs https://t.co/cOBmoW5GDA
