From the 21st-26th of May 2018, health leaders will gather together at the World Health Assembly (WHA) to discuss one of our most challenging health problems – the hidden health crisis of snakebite. 100,000 people die every year from snakebite, many more are disabled or disfigured. The vast majority cannot access effective antivenom treatment. Now there’s an opportunity with WHO’s proposed snakebite roadmap to tackle the issue on a broad number of fronts. Member states at the WHA this year will be able to vote on a resolution to establish this roadmap. MSF is calling countries to get behind this resolution to create a roadmap and turn the words in to action because for too long people have been suffering and dying in silence, unable to access effective treatment.
