Funding cuts will impact us for generations to come. TB will increase by 28-32%. 2.2M additional & totally preventable deaths over the next 5yrs. We have to prioritize finding all TB so we can reduce everyone's biggest risk factor of contracting TB - being exposed! www.context.news/money-power-...

Early reports to WHO from the 30 highest #tuberculosis (TB)-burden countries confirm that funding cuts from foreign aid, particularly from USAID, are already dismantling essential TB services. Without urgent action, these setbacks will reverse decades of progress to #EndTB 🔗 bit.ly/4kvsu2i
