    DENGUE fever - "No Aedes, No Dengue"

    Today we'll unpack a totally preventable, vector-borne disease --> Dengue Fever.

    However, as one of the NTDs, Dengue disproportionately affects those who are marginalized, have poor socio-economic status, and less favorable social determinants of health.

    Along with current climate crisis, this vector-borne disease will see expansion into previously naïve community and geographic location --> causing outbreaks, morbidity and mortality.

    BONUS - 15th JUNE is ASEAN Dengue Day

    World NTD Day - 30th January

    Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTD) are a group of diseases that has high morbidity burden to the population with which it affects.

    NTD forms a compounding problem for those already disadvantaged population and groups. COVID-19 pandemic and the vaccine maldistribution is another reflection of the underlying inequity in access and care, where you find vaccine inequity, there lies NTDs as well.

    Addressing NTD is the right thing to do.

    PHU 008: Post-vaccination era, Endemic Phase of the COVID19 Pandemic
    Oct 11 2021

    Send us a Text Message.

    We are now (October 2021) in the post-vaccination era.

    The emergence of the Delta variant of SARS-CoV 2 virus has made the endemicity of this pandemic an inevitable outcome.

    We will enter into the endemic phase of the pandemic and must live with the virus while balancing other dimensions of this pandemic, such as balancing life and livelihoods.

    Join me as we unpack the above, stay safe and take care!
