It’s out!! Finally…. 😮‍💨 Adult TB prevalence survey with child MTB infection survey (using QFT) in Karachi 🇵🇰 It’s do-able - so let’s do it!! (📣 all funders) We really do need to understand MTB transmission in different contexts better to ✂️the 🔁 url.uk.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/aYhCCX5WOI0o…

Amazing teamwork & special 🤲🏼 to the communities who participated PLOS Global Public Health International Statistics and Epidemiology Group IRD Global Rashida Abbas Ferrand Uzma Khan @KatharinaKranz4 This pesky mycobacterium is outwitting us all! We need more concurrent infection surveys to understand TB epi (à Hannah Rickman @petermacp)

1/3 THRU ZIM visited Kadoma, Gweru, and Bulawayo, engaging with small-scale mining stakeholders. Gweru Provincial Hospital reports seeing 100+ miners monthly, with alarming rates of silicosis (30-50%) and TB (10-20%).

This Halloween Akanksha Mimi Malhotra & naomi LSTM took us to the spine-chilling world of post-TB lung disease👻 via this RCT of adjunctive NAC shorturl.at/UBXwJ In our straw poll, 11% would consider NAC for their TB patients; 22% said no and 67% wanted more evidence.

Proud to share our work Global Health EDCTP3 Forum. We developed 2 risk scores to predict M. tuberculosis infection among household contacts in 🇲🇿🇹🇿🇿🇼 — and found models predicting TB progression perform better than infection tools. erase-tb.co.uk/post/advancing…
