“The TB control works, as the global incidence of the disease has been declining since 2004, albeit too slowly.”

Twenty-two countries, including South Africa, for 80% of the global burden of tuberculosis.

Each year about 9 million people developing the active form of the disease, and nearly 2 million die as a result. The new Global Plan aims to bring the diagnosis and treatment methods recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) to 32 million people over the next five years.

REDUCE BY HALF THE WORLD DEATHS

“The Global Plan to Stop Tuberculosis trace a much needed project to halve deaths from TB worldwide,” said Dr. Aaron Motsoaledi, Minister of Health of South Africa.

“In South Africa we have undertaken an ambitious program to reduce the number of victims of tuberculosis in our population, and we are committed to achieving the goals of the Global Plan. We call on world leaders to invest in that plan, which may help to release TB world, “said

Although TB is curable, the treatment requires combining several drugs for six months minimum.

Laboratories most countries still use a diagnostic method developed a century ago, namely to seek the tubercle bacillus in sputum using a microscope. And yet there is no vaccine to prevent pulmonary tuberculosis, which is the most common form of the disease.

Therefore, the Global Plan sets out a research project aimed to develop two new rapid tests that can be used properly prepared personnel to accurately diagnose cases of TB patient during the wait, “even in the most peripheral health posts basic.

For 2015, the goal is to have three new treatment regimens, one for drug-susceptible TB and two-drug resistant tuberculosis in phase III clinical trials, the last step required before marketing. At the same level of evidence should be also four experimental vaccines.

The sample handling is minimal, just stirring the mixture, let it sit for fifteen minutes and shake again. In this mix, and safe, withdraw a small volume of 2 to 3 milliliters, or what would be a tablespoon, and put into a cartridge that contains all the reagents needed to perform the analysis.
