🖊️Numbers paint a grim picture of why projects like @Stool4TB are urgently needed. A 2017 study estimated that, of the 239,000 children under 15 who died from TB, around 96% did so without treatment, and of those under 5,80% were never even diagnosed. isglobal.org/en/healthisglo…

🚨Publication Alert🚨 Despite advancements in #TBdiagnosis, many cases go undiagnosed due to reliance on sputum. This study evaluates a novel stool qPCR assay for improved accuracy and yield. doi.org/10.1016/S2666-… Congrats to all contributors👏
