⁉️ Did you know that tuberculosis (TB) is the world’s deadliest infectious disease?

⚠️ About a quarter of the global population is estimated to have been infected with TB bacteria, but most people will not develop the disease. In 2023, TB was responsible for 1.25 million deaths worldwide.

Key facts about TB:

🦠 Caused by bacteria that mainly affects the lungs
🗣 Spreads through the air when infected people cough, sneeze or spit
🤒 Symptoms include cough, fever, and weight loss
💉 It is preventable and curable
💊 It is treated with antibiotics

TB exists in all countries and age groups, but low- and middle-income regions are most affected.

Global efforts have saved 79 million lives since 2000! But we must do more to end TB by 2030.

Protect yourself from TB starts with:

✅ Awareness
🔬 Early detection
💊 Treatment

Consult your physician if you see symptoms like prolonged coughing, fever, or weight loss, especially if you've been in contact with someone diagnosed with tuberculosis recently.
