Neglected tropical disease control in a world with COVID-19: an opportunity and a necessity for innovation.

Simon J Brooker1, Kundai Ziumbe2, Nebiyu Negussu3, Siobhan Crowley4, Mona Hammami5.   

Abstract

Countries have seen substantial disruptions to usual health services related to coronavirus disease 2019 and these are likely to have immediate and long-term indirect effects on many disease control programmes, including neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). The pandemic has highlighted the usefulness of mathematical modelling to understand the impacts of these disruptions and future control measures on progress towards 2030 NTD goals. The pandemic also provides an opportunity, and a practical necessity, to transform NTD programmes through innovation.
