Providing diagnostic tests at the household instead of at clinics.

making those diagnostic tests available, making treatment available, making provision of adherence support available to people, getting treatment to people instead of having them come every month to come get their medication.

All of those things are things that are

We take for granted, but in resource poor settings, those things are not available.

And that's why the funding that we were getting, and we are still getting from many countries, but not so much anymore from the US, was so important and helped to fight some of these infectious diseases.

I mean, I think that taking a person and looking at the person holistically

And trying to understand what are the barriers that that person has is really important.

In the past, I think people often, us as doctors, we would often just treat whatever was wrong.

But you can't just do that.

You can't just treat a person wrong.

with that disease as if it's like you just got a bug that you're treating.

You're treating a person who has a whole lot of other things going on with them and you've got to understand how those work together.

But I think that the other role that scientists can play is that of advocacy.

I think that it's only by educating, making people aware and advocating for what's required that resources have come.

And that's how resources came in the first place.

And that's the only way that we can be part of the solution, part of making sure that those resources come back.

We will.

Yes.

Eventually.

Thanks.
