Impact of COVID-19 on Stop TB Efforts

02 Jul 2021

Worldwide, the response to the pandemic has pushed aside tuberculosis outreach and services, resulting in a 20% drop in diagnosis and treatment. The year 2020 saw a drastic decline in diagnosis and treatment of TB infections taking them to the 2008 levels. This article quotes a study that has found that while stringent COVID-19 responses may only last months, their effect on TB in high-burden would be far reaching. It emphasises the need for urgent recovery with global investment in TB outreach and treatment as response to the COVID-19 pandemic.  This article could provide useful insights to policy makers.  Click here to read the article.
