Diagnosing tuberculosis (TB) in young children is particularly challenging. In Sierra Leone, working with partners, we've been able to increase the numbers of children diagnosed and treated for TB early and closer to their homes. Find out how: bit.ly/3JeUCoZ

On this 2024 #WorldTBDay, the Decide TB project is happy to share its new website with you, as well as its first newsletter ! Together with the whole TB community, Decide TB teams are proud to claim ”Yes, we can end TB"! ⬇️ decide-tb.com
Really glad to contribute to this inportant work: New definitions for early #tuberculosis. @LancetRespirMed Our understanding of early TB is improving and new case definitions will help improve care, prevention, and research.
I'm pleased to share our @LancetRespirMed comment for #WorldTBDay2024: Let's prioritise research on childhood TB sequelae, bridge funding gaps, & extend care beyond treatment completion. #YesWeCanEndTB @drmvdzalm @TogunToyin @BeateKampmann Full-text link: bit.ly/4akW70N
New classification of #Tuberculosis to support efforts to eliminate the disease medicalxpress.com/news/2024-03-c… "The new framework, developed by a diverse group of experts, will help lead to better diagnosis and treatment of the early stages of TB which have historically been overlooked"
Childhood TB is often underdiagnosed due to limited access to Dx. Our study across 6 countries shows decentralizing TB Dx to district hospitals and PHC improves case detection in children. TB Dx for all. @tb_speed #endTB t.ly/Vw3Jd
