How new easy to use
field tests are being employed to hold back the
spread of syphilis in Kosovo and trachoma in
Tanzania. Both infections are caused by the same
bacteria. In Tanzania it's also regarded as a
disease of the poorest of the poor and a disease
especially of women and children. In Kosovo, a post
conflict country attempting to re-build its future,
there is a great need for much more education about
syphilis - they don't really have any proper
infection rate statistics.
Part of a 28 x 25-minute documentary series produced for the BBC. These films can be bought individually or as a series. |
