A multidimensional approach to the elimination of tuberculosis

Significant global efforts have been made in recent years to combat tuberculosis (TB) disease. Despite the fact that social and economic causes of TB have been well known for decades, the range of interventions has, until recently, been mostly restricted to the health domain. Mycobacterium tuberculosis that causes tuberculosis, the second-deadliest infectious killer (after COVID-19), which typically damages the lungs. It can spread when TB patients cough or otherwise release bacteria into the air, which can spread the disease. To ensure that significant gaps in outcome-oriented research are recognized and filled, we must promote collaboration among all involved parties in tuberculosis research and control in order to optimise the impact of fundamental research. Consequently, a multisectoral and interdisciplinary strategy is necessary as the global health community works toward the pledges and goals established in two recent high-level political gatherings.
