I think we did well at the Q Factor Awards @NewcastleHosps and to my amazing colleague Clare McGarry for all the hard work! #YesWeCanEndTB #WorldTBDay2024 #Tuberculosis
So many of our patients come to us via the urge to 2 weeks wait and enough have cancer and TB side by side @NewcastleHosps #YesWeCanEndTB #WorldTBDay24 #Tuberculosis

World TB Day 2024! Raising awareness of Tuberculosis in the @RMCHCharity atrium with support of @the_BHA and giving out some @QIAGEN stationary to staff! @MFT_Hive @RmchEdu
I wonder how many more families have been impacted by this…apple.news/Ain73NxWaRQiwW… @RobSissons1 @TB_Alert_UK @bbcemt @DailyMirror @tbnurselife

TB fact no 8 - On a global scale, approximately 1.2 million children contract TB every year, with an estimated 200,000 children needlessly dying from the disease @NewcastleHosps #YesWeCanEndTB #WorldTBDay24 #Tuberculosis
A really interesting morning showcasing the need for more than a medical approach to TB #YesWeCanEndTB #WorldTBDay24 #Tuberculosis

As a TB Nurse you can't underestimate the social concerns when treating TB in a community setting. #YesWeCanEndTB #WorldTBDay24 #Tuberculosis

Ahead of #WorldTBDay24, @dranuragb, @dr_madhavib and I write about need for both biomedical & social solutions to end TB thelancet.com/journals/lance… @TheLancet
TB fact no 7 - TB has existed for over 5,000 years it is now the world's highest infectious disease killer surpassing Covid-19 and affects the most vulnerable in society #YesWeCanEndTB #WorldTBDay24 #Tuberculosis
Highlight of today was meeting @FatimaK09 She is an inspiration and is using her experience of MDR-TB to raise awareness, challenge stigma, educate clinicians & conduct research to highlight the financial impact of TB that occurs whether you have to pay for healthcare or not.

A fascinating morning in the House of Lords and a sobering look at increasing TB concerns home and abroad #YesWeCanEndTB #WorldTBDay24 #Tuberculosis
TB fact no 6 - BCG vaccine has a documented protective effect against meningitis and disseminated TB in children. It does not prevent primary infection and, more importantly, does not prevent reactivation of latent pulmonary infection #YesWeCanEndTB #WorldTBDay24 #Tuberculosis
TB fact no5 - Two TB-related conditions exist: latent TB infection (LTBI) and TB disease. If not treated properly, TB disease can be fatal.
TB fact no5 - an estimated 10.6 million people fall ill with tuberculosis (TB) worldwide. 5.8million men, 3.5 million women and 1.3 million children. #YesWeCanEndTB #WorldTBDay24 #Tuberculosis
TB fact no3 - A person living with HIV is about 16 times more likely to develop active TB. #YesWeCanEndTB #WorldTBDay #Tuberculosis

Having had TB myself I know it’s important to raise awareness of it.

As we approach World TB Day I just want to say a shout out to our fantastic TB nurses across our NEY region including the fab @tbnurselife supporting TB patients in our communities and working to end TB. An example of the importance of the role of nurses in public health

@tbnurselife @farrow_stacey Brilliant idea Fiona! Will be looking out for your tweets 👀 #WTBD
The blurb in this @TheSun article drives me mad 🙄 I can personally testify that TB is very much a 21st century disease. It’s *NEVER* gone away. It’s been here since forever - you just haven’t been paying attention. Journalists, especially tabloid, please do better than this.
Whilst it is good that the media is taking an interest in the resurgence of TB in the UK, this type of reporting doesn't help people recognise that it is an illness that never went away and can affect anyone: thesun.co.uk/health/2596355…
@tbnurselife I really appreciate your comments Fiona. It’s always good that someone appreciates our concerns and grief. #grief #tuberculosis #healthconcerns
@tbnurselife If there had a been a god @Carrianne14 would have been sent your way. Last week I found out H&S at work doesn’t work. They said they had no power to investigate because they are governed by the #niceguidlines. Which we all know don’t protect you when you have #TB
A fabulous row of wonderful smiling new #QueensNurses taking the stage one by one to proudly receive their certificates and QN badges. 🎖 Many congratulations to all! 👏👏🏿👏🏼👏🏻👏🏾 #extraordinaryQNs #QNIAwards2023
