TB elimination strategies

Tuberculosis (TB) elimination strategies focus on detecting and treating TB early to prevent its spread. This involves screening at-risk populations, ensuring those infected complete their treatment, and using vaccines where appropriate. Public health efforts also include educating communities about TB signs and transmission, improving living conditions, and providing access to healthcare. By combining these approaches, health systems aim to reduce TB cases progressively until the disease is no longer a public health threat.
