By 2050, #AMR is predicted to cause up to 10 million deaths annually if no effective interventions are made. Drug-resistant #tuberculosis is a significant contributor to the global burden of AMR. Today, at the Global AMR Summit in #Boston, Dr. Salah Foraida spoke on the intersection between #TB and AMR and the need for global collaboration to improve treatment, surveillance, and prevention efforts. #GlobalHealth #EndTB

Putting science to work for better, faster TB cures.
About us
We envision a world where no one dies of tuberculosis. However, this cannot be achieved without improved, faster-acting, and affordable tuberculosis drug regimens that are available to all who need them. These new cures can bring renewed health, hope, and prosperity to millions. Since our inception in 2000, TB Alliance has led the global search for and development of new TB regimens, catalyzing the field and convening cross-sector partnerships to forge the progress that is urgently needed for better TB treatments.
