- Summary:
- Three years ago the BBC's 'Kill or Cure?' filmed the clinical trials in northern India for a drug to fight one of the world's most neglected diseases, Visceral Leishmaniasis. If caught, the disease (also known as Black Fever) is almost always fatal, but now a new drug has been licensed, tested and brought to the people of India by the Institute for OneWorld Health, and the hope is it will make a huge difference to the battle against one of the most deadly diseases in the world. 'Kill or Cure?' returns to India to see what impact the new drug is having.
