WHO will be reporting to the World Health Assembly (14-23 May 2007) on progress towards the 2005 international TB control targets. To mark this milestone in TB control, a special theme issue of the Bulletin of the World Health Organization is devoted to tuberculosis and published today. It provides a forum for review and debate on how the targets were pursued, how progress was assessed and conclusions reached, and the lessons to be learnt from the process. These questions are examined from global, regional and national perspectives.
This month's issue of the Bulletin with its special TB theme can be accessed at:
