Lancet Series Examines Strategies To Eliminate TB

The Lancet: How to eliminate tuberculosis
“…This Lancet Series, led by Salmaan Keshavjee, looks to translate existing knowledge, strategies, and approaches into effective interventions in the communities most afflicted by tuberculosis. His group decided on a goal: to work towards achieving zero deaths from tuberculosis, and to create a scientifically-based roadmap outlining the steps needed to reach this goal.” The series includes commentaries; a profile of Keshavjee, a physician and director of the Harvard Medical School Center for Global Health Delivery — Dubai; and several articles examining different methods and strategies to control, and eventually eliminate, tuberculosis (10/26).
