Overview

The word tuberculosis (TB) can arouse a spectrum of feelings-fear, misinterpretation, and occasionally indifference. For many, TB may seem like a relic of the past, an illness that belongs to history books and ancient medical journals. The truth is, nevertheless, significantly more complicated. Still one of the principal infectious illnesses worldwide, tuberculosis kills millions of people annually. Indeed, just behind HIV, it is the second most common cause of mortality from a single infectious agent. According to estimations by the World Health Organisation (WHO), 1.5 million people lost their lives to this treatable disease while approximately 10 million individuals contracted tuberculosis in 2020. In this view, it is vital to create a greater knowledge of tuberculosis-not just as a medical problem, but as a huge public health challenge that impacts individuals, families, and communities globally.
