Stop TB Canada is a network connecting people, organizations, and communities committed to ending tuberculosis (TB) at home and abroad. #EndTB
At the #UnionConf World Conference on Lung Health in Copenhagen, our Steering Committee member, Dr @yassentch.bsky.social presented how gaps in Canada’s health system make it harder for people to get the TB medicines they need, and how providers are helping drive change.

We join 20+ organizations concerned with Canada’s announcement today of a 16% cut from our previous pledge to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria. This is a painful setback when global stability, Canadian prosperity, and millions of lives hang in the balance.

70M lives saved. 63% fewer deaths from HIV, TB & malaria. 🌍

The Global Fund works, but progress is fragile. Canada has a chance to #LeadOnTB & help #WinTheFight by investing in the 8th Replenishment.

This is a big and significant win, and speaks to the real power of public advocacy campaigns. Still a VERY long way to go in the fight against the cuts, though. Join us at @tbfighters.org in pushing against attempts to cut U.S. investments in domestic and global health.

A local outbreak can quickly become a global crisis if allowed to spread undetected.

The Global Fund helps countries detect outbreaks faster, making us all safer.
