Donated medicines for neglected tropical diseases have improved the lives of billions of people. Together, we can ensure those still at risk are #NeglectedNoMore.
A Historic Public-Private Partnership
Since 2012, companies have donated more than 14 billion NTD treatments. As a result, more people than ever before receive at least one NTD drug: from 727 million in 2011 to more than 1.1 billion in 2019.
In 2019 alone, pharmaceutical companies donated nearly 1.8 billion NTD treatments compared to 970 million in treatments in 2011.
Since 2016, over 797 million individuals every year have received preventive chemotherapy (PC) interventions for at least one NTD.
Between 2010 and 2020, the number of people requiring treatment for at least one NTD fell from 2 billion to 1.7 billion, a drop of 300 million people.
