How to find a forgotten disease like yaws: Lessons from the Philippine experience.

Yaws is a highly infectious, chronic, and disabling neglected tropical disease of the skin and bones that is caused by Treponema pallidum subspecies pertenue and mainly affects children in tropical countries. A yaws eradication campaign from the 1950s to the early 1960s was successful in reducing cases by 95% worldwide, but a resurgence was noted in the 1970s. In 2012, the World Health Organization (WHO) targeted eradication of yaws through a mass administration of one-dose azithromycin. Nevertheless, in 2021, a total of 123,866 cases were reported from 13 countries, and 1,102 cases from nine countries were confirmed. Confirmed cases were largely from the Western Pacific region, although most cases from this region were not laboratory confirmed [1].

期刊介绍： PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases publishes research devoted to the pathology, epidemiology, prevention, treatment and control of the neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), as well as relevant public policy. The NTDs are defined as a group of poverty-promoting chronic infectious diseases, which primarily occur in rural areas and poor urban areas of low-income and middle-income countries. Their impact on child health and development, pregnancy, and worker productivity, as well as their stigmatizing features limit economic stability. All aspects of these diseases are considered, including: Pathogenesis Clinical features Pharmacology and treatment Diagnosis Epidemiology Vector biology Vaccinology and prevention Demographic, ecological and social determinants Public health and policy aspects (including cost-effectiveness analyses).
