Thanks for highlighting. Great collaboration with @sedonasweeney.bsky.social at @lshtm.bsky.social. With thanks to all our sites Wits health, Think and MoH of Uzbekistan and MoH of Belarus - their staff and of course our brilliant participants.

The findings suggest that adopting BPaL in high #TB-burden countries could:

- Cut costs for both providers and patients
- Enhance treatment
- Reduce pill burden
- Free up critical resources within health systems

We don’t even have to go to other countries, we have outbreaks in several states now.

Yup! One up the road from me with 1 dead and 9 hospitalized. Then down the road from me as well.

Under RFK this will certainly spread here

Uncertain. These words and letters seem pretty scary.

Those nations still have BCG on their immunization recommendations, correct? I think most finish up the booster schedule by mid teens and it's not on the adult schedule as far as i'm aware. Could a change in the schedule possibly help? Resistance is becoming a serious problem with many IDs. 🫤

Unfortunately BCG limited benefit except for young children where it reduces risk of most serious forms of TB

I'm really hoping that one of the 3 current protein subunit vaccines in phase 3 of clinicals, gets approved. There's getting to be a serious concern among Med pals of mine that IDs such as TB are definitely going to see a fairly sharp rise in the US the next few years due to Trump.
