Have you heard about #noma❓

Officially recognized as a neglected tropical disease (NTD) in December 2023, noma is an oral disease affecting children aged 2 to 6 years old in poor communities.

Early detection is crucial, as the disease rapidly destroys facial tissues & bones. Survivors often endure severe facial disfigurement, along with difficulties in speaking & eating.
