Have you heard of kala azar?
Kala azar is a neglected but potentially fatal tropical disease. India accounts for 30 per cent of cases worldwide.
This short animation explains what kala azar is, how it relates to HIV, and what we are doing in response.
Since 80 per cent of India's kala azar cases are reported in Bihar, we set up a programme there in 2007.
People living with HIV are particularly vulnerable to kala azar, so since 2016 we have been focusing on treating patients co-infected with the two diseases, in partnership with the Rajendra Memorial Research Institute of Medical Sciences (RMRIMS) in Patna, Bihar.
