- Title
Minutes to midnight: Turning back the Doomsday Clock through neglected disease vaccine diplomacy.
- Authors
Hotez, Peter J.
- Abstract
The article reflects on the importance of binational cooperation between Russia and the U.S. for eliminating neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). It argues that if scientific leadership of nuclear nations were redirected towards expanding existing vaccines or developing new vaccines, then NTDs could be eliminated. It informs that nuclear weapons states account for measles and dengue cases along with prevalence of intestinal helminth infections.
