On 24 March 1882, German physician and Nobel Prize laureate Robert Koch announced the discovery of the bacterium that causes tuberculosis (TB) - a date marked by #WorldTBDay today.

Aujourd'hui, nous commémorons la 'Journée Mondiale de la Lutte contre la Tuberculose 2024'.
#FAITS
📌La tuberculose est l'une des principales causes de mortalité dans le monde.
📌Elle tue 1, 6M de personnes/année.
📌On estime que 25% des décès surviennent en Afrique 🌍.

Increase investment in a #TB free future for
👉 improved health security &
well-being in society
👉 no TB related suffering & poverty
👉 savings for health systems

Today is #WTBD 2024
#FACTS
📌 TB is one of the leading causes of global mortality.
📌It kills 1, 6 M people/ year. It is estimated that 25% of deaths occur in 🌍.
📌 Financial burdens to access TB care are still important in🌍 .
🤝🏾It takes me and you to #ENDTB in Africa

In the heart of intellectual exchange and ground-breaking discoveries, day two of the #PHA4GECon continued to push on with the future of pathogen genomics. 🧬
