¿Ciencia a dos velocidades? Un llamamiento por las enfermedades tropicales desatendidas

30 Jan 2021

By Nathalie Strub-Wourgaft, Director of Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) and COVID-19 Response, DNDi and Denise Naniche, Scientific Director, ISGlobal

Hace un año, la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) declaraba la covid-19, una enfermedad hasta hace poco completamente desconocida, una “emergencia de salud pública global”. Hoy, tres vacunas han sido registradas ya en Europa y, solo en España, se han administrado más de 1.300.000 dosis, resultado de una revolución científica global sin precedentes. Mientras seguimos con preocupación el sufrimiento y dolor de las familias afectadas por la enfermedad, leemos en los periódicos noticias alentadoras sobre avances científicos que nos permitirán prevenir, tratar y controlar la pandemia.
