Description

In 2015, tuberculosis--or TB--sickened an estimated 10.4 million people around the world and killed 1.4 million—more than HIV. But an annual tuberculosis report released this week by the World Health Organization says the apparently alarming rise mainly reflects improved surveillance in India, which accounts for 24% of the world’s cases. The report also emphasizes that the world has made scant progress against multidrug-resistant TB, and that it doesn’t spend enough on diagnosis and treatment for this curable disease. Six nations—India, China, Indonesia, Nigeria, Pakistan, and South Africa—account for 60% of the total TB cases in the world. According to Science Magazine, the report says “The rate of progress in these countries will have a major influence on whether or not” public health experts reach 2020 goals for fighting the disease. Those milestones include reducing the number of new cases and deaths in 2015 by 20% and 35%, respectively.
