TB elimination initiatives

TB elimination initiatives aim to reduce tuberculosis cases to very low levels worldwide through coordinated efforts. These include widespread screening to identify infected individuals, providing timely treatment to prevent spread and prevent disease progression, and ensuring access to healthcare. Public health campaigns promote awareness, vaccination where applicable, and addressing social factors like poverty that increase risk. The goal is to interrupt transmission, treat existing cases effectively, and ultimately eliminate TB as a significant health threat, contributing to improved public health outcomes globally.
