People with diseases like leprosy and lymphatic filariasis are often stigmatised long after they have recovered. This affects their mental health in ways that is mostly invisible to global health funders.(xitter.gq/NaturePortfolio/status…)

Some 1.5 billion people worldwide have worms growing inside them, and there's a simple, cheap fix. For the cost of deworming a single dog in the US, we can deworm more than 100 children abroad. Where else can 50 cents a child have this impact? My column: nytimes.com/2023/05/20/opini…
