Have a nice weekend!
Kind regards,

1. Each year, on March 24 we memorialize World
Tuberculosis (TB) Day to raise public awareness
about the disastrous health, social and economic
consequences of TB, and to boost efforts to end the
global TB epidemic. The date marks the day in 1882
when Dr Robert Koch announced that he had
discovered the bacterium that causes TB, which
opened the way towards diagnosing and curing the
disease.
TB remains the world’s deadliest infectious killer.
Each day, almost 4500 people lose their lives to TB
and close to 30,000 people fall ill with this
preventable and curable disease. Global efforts to
combat TB have saved an estimated 54 million lives
since the year 2000 and lowered the TB mortality
rate by 42%.
This year the theme of World TB Day is ‘It’s time’ It
highlights the urgency to act on the commitments
made by global leaders to:
• Scale up access to prevention & treatment
• Promote equitable, rights-based & people
centred TB response
• Ensure sufficient & sustainable financing including for research
