It’s such a horrible disease, so this is great news
Bangladesh was successfully validated by WHO based on the fact that the number of reported cases of visceral leishmaniasis was below 1 per 10 000 population in each of the country’s subdistricts for at least 3 consecutive years.
This might make people look it up anyways but: the images can be hard to look at, so please be advised
