This is a BIG step forward in the global fight to #endTB, because it means people can be diagnosed much more quickly and start treatment sooner, helping save millions of lives and reducing the spread of the disease.
TB interventions like TUTT (Targeted Universal TB Testing) and TPT (TB Preventive Therapy).
We remain committed to making a difference in the fight against TB.
#WorldTBDay #EndTB
A week later, we still celebrate #WTBD, held at Isivivana Centre in Khayelitsha, in partnership with Vuka Research Clinic & UCT IDM. We brought researchers and the community together to talk about TB, stigma, and solutions.
Thank you to everyone who was part of this #ENDTB
The session amplified the voices of TB Vijetas and underscored their desire to raise awareness, dispel myths and help others in the fight against TB.

#PublishedToday ahead of #WorldHealthDay
Amidst high decibel WTBD organising globally, we visited TB ground zero: a shelter home for homeless people where NTEP & HPPI are saving lives 🙏

This week, we marked #WorldTBDay. Clinical testing alone can miss cases. Our dPCR assay kits & wastewater testing service provide the sensitive data needed to detect trends early, pinpoint hotspots, & reach underreported communities
Let’s use every tool in our arsenal to #EndTB. @who.int @aphl.org
Más de 1 millón de niños enferman de tuberculosis cada año. Casi la mitad no son diagnosticados ni tratados.
Los algoritmos clínicos propuestos por la OMS ayudan a tomar decisiones basadas en síntomas y riesgo, especialmente en contextos de pocos recursos.

📝 Collectively we must demand more from our government and local leaders. To help communities and advocates start the engagement process with those responsible for keeping them safe, The Union has created this letter template: theunion.org/technical-pu...

Community TB education and testing with Kuyasa Clinic and Michael M Clinic, plus an education session at Emithini Primary School.
Anyone who breathes can get TB — get tested. #EndTB #WorldTBDay
Over 3,300 people die from #tuberculosis every day.
New @who.int-recommended diagnostic tools could bring faster, cheaper testing closer to patients and help close critical detection gaps.

Common misconceptions of tuberculosis pt. 2
🩺 On Monday, we spoke to @nickherbert.com about tuberculosis, what people may not understand about it, and what we can do to stop the world's deadliest disease.
#Tuberculosis #EndTB #YesWeCanEndTB
Um novo estudo destaca que a compreensão da interação entre a #tuberculose e as chamadas “bactérias benéficas” pode abrir novas perspetivas para o diagnóstico, o tratamento e a prevenção da doença, sobretudo em países com elevada carga de #TB.

In commemoration of #WorldTBDay, we started with a road walk to sensitize the community on TB and the importance of early diagnosis & treatment. 🚶🏽♀️🚶🏾♂️
Then, @lightontb.bsky.social and @zanklic.bsky.social hosted a scientific symposium with the theme:
#EndTB #GenderAndTB #LightConsortium
🤔What is a common misconception of tuberculosis and what can we do about it?
@sojanjosephmp.bsky.social shares his thoughts.

Tumisang never expected that feeling tired and losing her appetite would lead to finding out she had TB. It was tough, but she’s recovered. Read her full story: https://www.nacosa.org.za/how-tumisang-overcame-tb/

TB's greatest evolutionary strength: phenotypic dormancy under hostile pressure
Our policy- mass antibiotic exposure, incomplete t/t, no reactivation biomarker, ongoing transmission.
We r designing the exact selective environment TB needed
R we selecting for a better TB?

Ending TB needs everyone — communities, leaders, and partners. See how Ingrid Schoeman, Prof Norbert Ndjeka, and Lucica Ditiu are making an impact. #EndTB Read the full blog: speakingofmedicine.plos.org/2026/03/24/w...
On #WorldTBDay, we must keep children at the centre of the response. Babies and young children are at higher risk of developing TB if they are infected, yet too many still face barriers to prevention, diagnosis and treatment. Yes, we can end TB — but only if children are not left behind. #EndTB
Tuberculosis (TB) is preventable and treatable—but it still impacts communities every day.
On World Tuberculosis Day, we’re raising awareness and encouraging action. Early testing and treatment can save lives and help stop the spread.
Let’s work together to end TB. #WorldTBDay #EndTB #PublicHealth
Yes, we can #EndTB.
For #WorldTBDay, a closer look at how we'll get there — from strengthening health systems to ensuring access to vaccines:
The 2026 UCSF-SFDPH World TB Day Symposium is happening today!
Highlights include:
🔹Keynote presentation by Dr. Paula Fujiwara: Yes, We Can (Still) End TB—Led by Science, Powered by Communities for Action

It’s World TB Day and we are so grateful for the support We Are TB and Somos TB has received over the years from our partners in the fight against tuberculosis. We affirm our dedication and solidarity with people fighting this disease everywhere. Yes we can! #EndTB
