What if we eliminated one of the world's oldest diseases?  (transcript)
Summary
From ancient period, some diseases kill a lot of humans and animals and 10 oldest diseases that I've researched are as follows.
10 Cholera
9  Typhoid
8  Leprosy
7  Smallpox
6  Rabies
5  Malaria
4  Pneumonia
3  Tuberculosis
2  Trachoma
1  Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever
And then we haven't all exterminated yet.  People are struggling somewhere in the world even now.
However, there are some diseases that are not intractable among those. Trachoma is one of them. Of course,  money is needed though it's completely preventable.
Trachoma is a bacterial infection that is passed from person to person and by flies. Children's eyelids are scared and they touch their eyes with its hand, it affects their mother, and they will go blind.
The speaker suggests the strategy called the SAFE to fight Trachoma. The SAFE means surgery, antibiotics, face washing, and environment.
Training nurses surgically and donating antibiotics can help patients from Trachoma. Teaching kids how important to wash their faces and creating maps where Trachoma spreads really help people.
The speaker hopes that our world is freed from Trachoma. Yes, we can.
