Always great to get perspectives of #TBsurvivors at the #WorldTuberculosisDaysymposium. Really insightful talk by @SamaraBarnes1 (Affected Community co-lead @UKAPTB) giving a first-hand experience of #TB care in the #UK. "#TB patients are not numbers - we are mom, dads, etc"
🚨It's #WorldTBDay🚨 🦠Drug-resistant TB accounts for 1 in 3 deaths from antimicrobial-resistant infections 🌐We must continue to raise awareness for TB ahead of the United Nations High-Level Meeting on Antimicrobial Resistance in September Together #YesWeCanEndTB @TBAlliance
🦠On #WorldTBDay remember that TB is a preventable and curable disease 🌐 Collaboration across sectors and borders is needed to advance tools for prevention, diagnosis, treatment and care 📢 We need political will, investment and global effort to #EndTB @UKAPTB @TBAlliance
🚨 Today is #WorldTBDay! 🚨 🧑🤝🧑 TB can affect anyone, regardless of age, gender, or socio-economic status. 🦠 Every year 10 million get ill from TB and ~ 1.5 million people die. 🌐 Together we can raise awareness and #YesWeCanEndTB @UKAPTB @TBAlliance
Ahead of #WorldTBDay, a new @Cochrane_IDG review has found that door-to-door TB screening and contact tracing can improve diagnosis rates, but must be paired with effective follow-up care to be successful. Read more: lstm.ac/3PxuRUi

Our next panel of the afternoon is looking at the question: how can we strengthen partnerships to ensure that in the UK we are working effectively together towards TB elimination and are accountable to the commitments made at the 2023 UN High-Level Meeting on TB?
@KerryMillington @DrJessPotter We move to the first session of the day: presentations from TB researchers across the UK on the work they are doing at the moment to help eradicate the disease entirely. The first two speakers are @DrTomWingfield from the Liverpool @richardwhite321 from London
Opening the meeting, co-chair @KerryMillington welcomed all members to our first in person event. It promises to be a fascinating day with presentations from TB researchers across the UK
