TB FREE BIHAR
Tuberculosis is a great concern in India. Of the 8.6 million TB cases reported throughout the world in 2014, 2.2 million (25%) cases occurred in India alone; making it world’s highest TB burden country. Primary reason for growing burden is poverty, lack of monitoring and long duration of the treatment. Through our program, we are trying to ensure universal access and adherence to TB treatment
