Reflections from Uganda: Partnerships to Eliminate Disease

There is nothing more inspiring to me than observing the direct impact that collaboration and partnership can have on communities in need.
Last month, I was fortunate to join Pfizer colleagues and partners on a trip to Moroto, Uganda. We journeyed to this district in the northern part of the country to observe a mass drug administration (MDA) of antibiotics to help treat and prevent trachoma, the world’s leading infectious cause of blindness. The MDA in Moroto was the latest in an expansive global effort to eliminate this neglected tropical disease, which, if left untreated, can cause the eyelids to turn inward so the eyelashes scrape the eyeball, causing excruciating pain and irreversible blindness.
