Gonorrhoea accounts for over 82 million new cases each year and has had no new treatment in more than 40 years.

GARDP and Innoviva Specialty Therapeutics have co-developed zoliflodacin, an investigational first-in-class oral antibiotic now under FDA review.

THIS IS BIG.

Every US$1 invested in #NTD research & development delivers an
estimated US$405 return. Investing in NTDs is not a cost - it's an
economic accelerator. We must protect this progress.
