People living in communities highly burdened by #tuberculosis (TB) may be exposed to the deadly disease up to 5 times per year without necessarily becoming infected.
Building on their work to better understand TB transmission, AIGHD Fellows modelled data from sensitive breath sampling studies.

#EpiGenEthiopia Lead Investigator Dr Tobias Rinke de Wit: “Setting up networks like this is difficult because there are different countries, angles, priorities... Still, it is the basis for everything: We have to approach the future in Africa on a continental level and not on a country level.”

The #EpiGenEthiopia project that AIGHD spearheads featured in a symposium at the 12th #EDCTPForum in Kigali, Rwanda, this week.
EpiGen aims to generate real-time genomic data about pathogens to inform public health action and is one of 10 such projects on the continent forming the GenEpi Network.

#Trump2.0 is threatening to dismantle lifesaving programmes for people across the world.
#PEPFAR has been critical in the fight against #HIV/AIDS but we believe that this is the wrong move. What happens when you stop PEPFAR for 90 days or 3 months?
