Are we on the wrong side of the #endTB track? Please consider the below article based on insights from those who have served the fight against TB for decades - including TB survivor and people living with HIV.

Millions have got lifesaving TB services but millions more have also got newly infected with TB - year after year. High time we move to end TB mode.

Inconvenient question: Science is gifting us new HIV prevention tools but is it expanding choices for the people? Please consider the below article based upon insights from Jim Pickett who has devotedly worked all his life to advance community-centric HIV prevention research for those whose needs are most acute in high burden settings. The long delay of years and decades in rolling out new HIV prevention tools and converting scientific gains into public health impact (reduction in new cases) is unacceptable.
