dc.description.abstract | Ambitious targets to end tuberculosis (TB) were set at the United Nations General Assembly High-Level Meeting (UNHLM) on TB in September 2018, with children and adolescents specifically noted as key populations deserving of more attention. [1] In addition, the World Health Organization (WHO) launched a revised ‘Roadmap towards ending TB in children and adolescents’,[2] outlining key actions that should be taken at country level to engage relevant stakeholders to optimally prevent and treat TB in these age groups | en_ZA |
