**Correspondence:** - **Lott's View on Nonsmokers' Rights:** Lott advocates a libertarian stance, arguing that physicians and governments should not interfere with individual behavior, even if it is harmful. This view is applied to issues like seat belt use, motorcycle helmets, drunk driving, and fluoride use. However, the author of this correspondence, Dr. Steven A. Schroeder, notes the significant marketing efforts of the tobacco and food industries and supports clinical interventions to improve public health. - **Control of Neglected Tropical Diseases:** Clare Huppertz and David N. Durrheim emphasize the importance of ongoing surveillance to prevent the resurgence of neglected tropical diseases. They suggest that a comprehensive, integrated surveillance plan should be included in the cost estimates for control or elimination efforts. The authors of the original article, David Molyneux, Alan Fenwick, and Lorenzo Savioli, acknowledge the challenges but highlight the development of critical tools and the need for routine surveillance in health management information systems. - **Myocardial Reperfusion Injury:** Radhakrishnan Ramaraj challenges the statement about therapeutic hypothermia, noting its potential to reduce final myocardial infarct size. Mervyn B. Forman and Edwin K. Jackson discuss the relationship between the "no-reflow" phenomenon and myocardial reperfusion injury, emphasizing its importance in understanding the mechanisms of injury. They also correct the classification of adenosine as an anti-inflammatory agent, noting its additional actions such as antiplatelet, vasodilatory, and angiogenic effects.**Correspondence:** - **Lott's View on Nonsmokers' Rights:** Lott advocates a libertarian stance, arguing that physicians and governments should not interfere with individual behavior, even if it is harmful.
