Trachoma: how a common cause of blindness can be prevented worldwide—I knew very little about trachoma before working on this piece. I was very surprised by how much progress had been made against it, and also the scale of the data collection effort (eye tests of more than 2.6 million people!) - it raised my ambitions on how much was possible against neglected diseases with targeted efforts.
<3 just read the post and I found it a fun read! Man, successful public health initiatives are so great :’) Definitely one of the more inspiring things about humanity.
True, it’s cool that we have large scale data on this—nice graphs! Thanks for sharing :)
