🌍 World Tuberculosis (TB) Day | March 24
Today, we recognize World Tuberculosis Day, a global effort to raise awareness about tuberculosis (TB) and the importance of early detection, treatment, and prevention.
TB is a serious but preventable and treatable disease that primarily affects the lungs and spreads through the air when a person with active TB coughs or sneezes. While it remains a global health concern, the good news is that with timely care, TB can be effectively treated—and lives can be saved.
Know the symptoms:
• Persistent cough lasting 3 weeks or more
• Chest pain
• Coughing up blood
• Fatigue or weakness
• Fever and night sweats
• Unexplained weight loss
If you or a loved one are experiencing these symptoms, it’s important to seek medical care as soon as possible.
At Celebrating Life Community Health Center, we are committed to supporting the health and well-being of our community through accessible, compassionate care. Early screening and treatment not only protect your health—but also help prevent the spread of TB to others.
Let’s work together to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and ensure everyone has access to the care they need.
💙 Your health matters. Early action makes a difference.
