Better access to tuberculosis testing is a key priority for fighting tuberculosis, the leading cause of infectious disease deaths in people.
BACKGROUND: The burden of advanced HIV disease remains a significant concern in sub-Saharan Africa.
BACKGROUND: In 2022, an Ebola disease outbreak caused by Sudan virus (SUDV) occurred in Uganda, primarily affecting Mubende and Kassanda districts.
Sputum culture reversion after conversion is an indicator of tuberculosis (TB) treatment failure.
BACKGROUND: Nipah virus (NiV), a highly lethal virus in humans, circulates in Pteropus bats throughout South and Southeast Asia. Difficulty in obtaining viral genomes from bats means we have a poor understanding of NiV diversity.
BACKGROUND: There is a lack of empirical data on design effects (DEFF) for mortality rate for highly clustered data such as with Ebola virus disease (EVD), along with a lack of documentation of methodological limitations and operationa
INTRODUCTION: People living with HIV are considered at higher risk of developing severe forms of tuberculosis (TB) disease. Providing HIV testing to TB-exposed people is therefore critical.
