Geneva, Switzerland, 10 February 2023: Old and new pandemics, conflicts, and natural disasters heavily impacted our world over the last few years, and one thing that has been lacking is the collective will to respond to these challenges.
Amazing works were done in 2022 by many TB High Burden Countries to recover from the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic, and to ensure access to new diagnostics, new treatment regimens, digital technology and artificial intelligence (AI) for the TB response. However, the needs are huge if we want to be on track to end TB by 2030.
This year is going to be critical for all of us engaged in TB work and should be championed as the ‘year of hope’ to get full support, attention, and energy for a collective ‘YES! We can End TB’.
On Valentine's Day 2023, which will be celebrated in many countries around the world, we are invoking the feeling of togetherness and the collective will to fight against all odds and support all the people who are suffering and those in need, and save lives.
Do check our social media toolkit with images and messages to share. Please tag @StopTB and use the hashtag #YesTogetherWeCanEndTB❤ in all your posts.
We invite everyone to invest your love, support, and empathy with the brave children, women, and men across the world who are affected by TB and those who care for them.
“Yes! Together We Can End TB!
