Part 3 of 6 - Three years ago the BBC's "Kill or Cure?" filmed the clinical trials 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.
The world is so unjust, its sad to see how millions of people are affected by kalar azar because people wont develop a treatment because of no profit.

Somethings puzzle me. A developing country, leaving ,millions to a mercy of devastating disease. Having to goto America for funding. These people could have been cured with a simple remedy that as usual we take for granted. This really moved me, shame on the developed world.
