DID YOU KNOW? TB Preventive Therapy (TPT) is a treatment that helps prevent the development of active TB in high-risk groups. It's especially important for those living with #HIV, close contacts of #TB patients and people living in areas with high TB rates. #EndTB #EndStigma

However, there is a notable lack of awareness among the general public about the benefits and importance of #TUTT.

What approaches do you think can be taken to raise public awareness on #TUTT and encourage people to get tested?

[THREAD]: SA is making headway in ending TB, but a significant gap remains in the TB care cascade, leaving many undiagnosed & untreated. TUTT is identified as a key strategy to reduce TB's spread that enables early diagnosis and treatment, reducing transmission risk and improving health outcomes.
