Manifestly disappointed that some so-called #snakebite experts continue to propagate myths, rumors and fallacies, and remain blissfully unaware that they are doing so. #factsnotfiction #FactChecking #FactsMatter

Clinical aspects of snakebite envenoming and its treatment in low-resource settings pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36931290/?utm_…
The more time I invest into understanding the problem of #snakebite the more I'm realising I know very little. The problem is very diverse with its roots embedded into the institutional gaps. This highlights the need for preventive measures which are often underfunded.
#WHO will host 2 more community engagement stakeholder meetings in early November. Follow the links for more info: ME, Asia & Australasia: bit.ly/3MimcSI Americas, EU & Africa: bit.ly/3fUurrU

Reducing the burden of snakebite envenoming depends on effective community engagement to change steadfastly held views and perceptions. WHO wants to hear about key challenges/barriers from community activists, health promotion experts and stakeholders: eventbrite.com/e/informal-sna…
"#Disability is not being addressed as part of the #snakebite agenda in any country of the world. We need to recognize the fact that disability is perhaps the more important outcome in snakebite envenoming than death itself." - @toxinologist @WHO #IDPWD #IDPWD2021
WHO will be hosting an informal snakebite community engagement stakeholder forum - if you are working in this field then please do sign up for the event on 16th December to get your views heard #snakebite #NTDs eventbrite.com/e/informal-sna…
