MSF Response to Launch of the “Roadmap for Childhood Tuberculosis: Towards Zero Deaths” | Doctors Without Borders:

On October 1, 2013, the World Health Organization, the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease, the Stop TB Partnership, and other partners launched the Childhood TB Roadmap, a guiding document that seeks to outline the activities needed to accelerate progress toward the elimination of childhood TB.

“MSF welcomes the efforts of the Childhood TB Roadmap to reverse years of neglect and to urgently challenge today’s untenable status quo, which sees hundreds of children dying unnecessarily each day from a preventable and curable disease.
