Topic: COVID-19, Diarrheal Disease, and Fragile Health Systems
While the world’s attention currently is focused on the immediate needs of the COVID-19 response, existing diseases that result in high mortality and morbidity—such as childhood diarrhoea—have not disappeared. On the contrary: the threat has intensified. This presentation and Q&A will highlight the fact that on the current trajectory, we are likely to miss the GAPPD target for a reduction in diarrheal mortality. The discussion will also explore the extent to which co-packaged ORS and zinc might bring us back on track in low-income settings.
