Even after 9,000 years, Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major global health challenge, affecting 10 million people annually. Alarmingly, it claims around 1.5 million lives each year, making it the world’s deadliest infectious disease. But did you know that TB is both preventable and curable?
Still, not all cases are successfully cured. Despite the availability of effective treatments, multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) remains a growing concern, making the disease more challenging to treat. This issue further complicates TB control efforts, emphasising the urgent need for new medications, advanced diagnostic techniques, and innovative treatment strategies.
Join us for an insightful webinar with Dr. Laxmikant Yenge, a renowned pulmonologist, as he explores the key aspects of TB—its causes, symptoms, prevention, treatment options, and the growing concern of multidrug-resistant TB. This session aims to raise awareness and empower individuals with essential knowledge to combat TB effectively, paving the way for a TB-free future.
