Although efforts to combat childhood killer diseases have been immense, consequently, there have been reduced actions to curb the global disease burden of NTDs. Although neglected diseases are caused by numerous types of disease causing pathogens, these diseases have geographic and functional similarities. In areas of extreme poverty, it is not unusual to discover multiple neglected diseases operating at the same time and within the same population. Due to these commonalities, the same global health policy framework has been implemented to understand the conditions that promote NTD transmission. It is essential that the same global attention for childhood killer diseases is directed towards NTD control and treatment to ensure that the world’s most marginalized communities are not our last priority.
