We’d all like to see TB rates dropping faster than they are! Engaging corporations to help end TB in workplaces, communities, and countries is an inadequately tapped strategy. Our reflection: tinyurl.com/2p93eayf @nhochMD @bu_chart @id_bmc @OfficialJipmer @paimadhu

We also discuss TB mortality in Amsterdam during the Hunger Winter (1944-45). The acute impact of food insecurity is evident and salient given the recrudescence of conflict in Europe. The past may herald the future. @WHO @JoiaMukherjee @megan_b_murray @sanghyuk_shin @bu_chart
