    There are many horrific tropical diseases that we almost never hear about. For example Chagas Disease, a parasite which is transmitted by the Kissing Bug (not joking!). The parasite will slowly eat away at your heart, esophagus and intestines, and will occasionally cause inflammation of the brain. Charming.

    Maybe it's because this is among Kurzgesagt's earlier content, but this video is pretty embarrassing. To suggest that pharmaceutical companies donated drugs to eradicate these diseases "with no other motivation than to help" humanity is absolutely ludicrous. Such acts whitewash their reputation while having a minimal impact on their bottom line so that content creators can make videos like this lauding them when sponsored to do so by corporate-friendly charities, such that we might overlook all the harm they do.

    • @Charles-xu7pu

      My thoughts exactly. NTDs are still one of humanity's biggest problems. This video makes it seem like big pharma came and saved the day and solved NTDs when in in reality, the donations barely made a dent in the number of infections. They're called neglected tropical diseases specifically because big pharma tends not to give a shit about them. It's great that some kind effort is being made but it's a battle that is far from won.
