Another day, another TB diagnosis. More patients with TB in the hospital than COVID right now. World Health Organization (WHO) estimates the COVID-19 pandemic has set us back 12 years in the fight to eliminate TB & expect a 20% increase in deaths. TB can be difficult to diagnose. Here are some thoughts:

For #InternationalNursesDay nurses and AHPs from the respiratory department @QAHospitalNews wanted to show support for colleagues in India facing huge challenges dealing with COVID-19.Our wonderful staff are arranging for a care package to be sent to colleagues in Delhi.

Breaking!! The WHO supports a 4-month regimen (rifapentine, isoniazid, pyrazinamide and moxifloxacin) for the treatment of drug-susceptible pulmonary TB in alternative to the current 6-month regimen. apps.who.int/iris/rest/bits… Now how do we get Rifapentine?!

Since 1921, the BCG vaccine has helped protect millions of children from TB. Unfortunately, it offers poor protection for youth & adults. TB killed nearly 2 million people last year alone. The good news is we can #EndTB in the next 9 years. And a new #TBVaccine can help us do it

Congratulations to our brilliant respiratory day ward team for being nominated in this years Pride of Portsmouth Awards. They are an amazing team and we are extremely proud of them.

Last winter, 60% of our beds were filled with Covid patients. ICU expanded from 19 to > 60 V patients. Staff worked beyond exhaustion to keep pts safe. We are preparing to do the same again imminently. Thank you Professor Chris Whitty for clear direct & honest messages @QAHospitalNews

Yes, this. Definitely something slightly off about making someone feel stupid, and behaving in a divisive manner. The poster should also list what it feels like to be on the receiving end of these. It’s wrong: please don’t do it. #culture #values #CivilityMatters

#WorldTBDay 2022 is 7 days away⏰! #EndTB A shout-out to all TB health workers, TB practitioners (public-private, informal, traditional..) 👏 You've responded to #COVID19 and you're the frontline in the fight of TB and any future pandemic. #InvestToEndTB
