Good news from #Ghana about reporting of #NTD, shared with permission. #scabies has been added to the Monthly Reporting Form, so diagnosed cases of scabies will be counted. Not sure which countries in #Africa already do this, don’t think its many (Ethiopia do, maybe?) (/1)

@MenziesResearch & @MedicinesDev are involved in a ground-breaking study trialing the use of the drug moxidectin as a single-dose oral medicine to treat scabies infection. It has the potential to improve the treatment of #scabies worldwide. #BeatNTDs #WorldNTDDay

R&D. An advanced new ttt for onchocerciasis, moxidectin, presents an opportunity to prevent millions of people from suffering permanent blindness. We hope to see important changes for scabies as well. #beatNTDs #moxidectin #scabies @ControlScabies @MedicinesDev #WorldNTDDay – at Paris, France
