STopping Acute Rheumatic Fever Infections to Strengthen Health (STARFISH)
Purpose:
Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD) is a serious disease caused by preventable Strep A infections, disproportionately affecting Indigenous Australians. Knowledge gaps remain on how to eliminate RHD, and preventing acute rheumatic fever (ARF, the step before RHD) is key. In a global first STARFISH brings together a diverse team of experts to tackle the root causes – social determinants – providing evidence as to how environmental health and housing interventions can stop Strep A spread and prevent ARF.
