“…Many policy actors felt that existing supply chain interventions, decentralised treatment approaches and community engagement initiatives for leprosy could also benefit CL, but others also warned against increasing care-seeking unless CL treatment could be provided on a scale commensurate with the large burden they perceived.Conclusion Our findings demonstrate significant gaps in the provision of care for skin NTDs within primary healthcare, very different health-seeking patterns for leprosy and CL, and a need to develop new models of care, especially for CL.…”

Evaluation of PM2.5 Surface Concentrations Simulated by NASA’s MERRA Version 2 Aerosol Reanalysis over India and its Relation to the Air Quality Index by Chimurkar D. Navinya, V. Vinoj, Satyendra K. Pandey

“…While the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) measured exceedances of the national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) on 34% of the days, MERRA-2’s prediction was only 11%, and its estimate of the annual average PM2.5 concentration across all of the sites was also negatively biased, by ~27 µg m−3. Correlations of 0.96 and 0.6 were found between the estimates and the measurements for the monthly and the daily averaged concentrations, respectively; these numbers can be dramatically improved by applying a simple bias correction. …”
