Article Synopsis
- - This paper introduces an action framework designed for countries with low tuberculosis (TB) incidence aiming to eliminate the disease, emphasizing a step-by-step approach towards "pre-elimination" and eventual complete elimination of TB.
- - The framework identifies challenges faced by low-incidence countries, such as decreased political commitment, funding, and awareness as TB rates decline, along with issues related to vulnerable populations and cross-border migration.
- - Eight priority action areas are outlined to tackle these challenges, including ensuring political support, addressing the needs of at-risk groups, and investing in research, all while emphasizing a multisectoral approach to ensure equitable access to TB diagnosis and treatment.
