This is a moment of reckoning in the fight against HIV, tuberculosis (TB) and malaria. For our Eighth Replenishment, the Global Fund needs US$18 billion to save 23 million lives, cut the death rate from the three diseases by 64% and help build a healthier, safer and more equitable world.
This policy brief presents a summary of current evidence on vulnerability to TB and proposes interventions for equitable, person-centred, and human rights-based TB prevention and care. It aligns with WHO policies and guidance on TB prevention and screening, management of TB and comorbidities, access...
