WHO launched a mobile application for easy access to the latest global tuberculosis (TB) data. The game-changing app brings to the users’ fingertips the current statistics and trends, country and region comparisons and quick search for indicators.
Some of the app’s main features include a summary of key facts about the TB epidemic and of global progress to end TB, detailed country and regional profiles, handy comparisons between countries and regions, and the ability to do a pinpoint search for statistics.
The app is available for free download on the Google Play Google Play and Apple App stores. It works both online and offline.
The data in the app is from WHO’s Global TB Report, which provides a comprehensive and up-to-date assessment of the TB epidemic, and progress in the response at global, regional and country levels. TB remains one of the top 10 causes of death worldwide and is the world’s top infectious killer.
