"We are working to bridge the knowledge gap on #mycetoma through epidemiological studies in Kenya, Senegal, Ethiopia and India. Lack of investment, research, access to diagnosis and treatment is contributing to the neglect," said @bornanyaoke.bsky.social

Skin diseases can block progress toward #UHC. Strengthening primary care for skin conditions means better access for all, ensuring no one is left behind. 'There is potential for inclusion of new therapies in the @who.int essential medicines list.' says @bornanyaoke.bsky.social #NNN2025
