MSF calls for urgent action as governments and donors are failing children with TB


A new report released today by Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders (MSF), shows that children with tuberculosis (TB) continue to be left behind in the global effort to end the disease. The report, TACTIC: Test, Avoid, Cure TB in Children, surveyed TB policy guidelines in 14 countries* with a high burden of TB, revealing that many countries lag behind in aligning their national TB policies with the latest guidelines from the World Health Organization (WHO).
