Beni: Surviving Sleeping Sickness

Meet Beni, a young boy from the Democratic Republic of Congo who survived sleeping sickness. His life changed after a tsetse fly bite transmitted this neglected disease, which attacks the central nervous system and can be fatal without timely treatment. He began falling asleep in class, picking fights, and was even asked to leave school. 💊 Thanks to timely diagnosis, the support of many heroes who helped Beni in his journey, and innovative all-oral treatments developed through research with our partners, Beni was able to recover. #NotAllHeroes wear capes. 🎬 Watch his story in our new film ‘Beni: Surviving Sleeping Sickness’, produced by Rooftop, and made possible thanks to the support of the players of the Dutch Postcode Lottery.
