In my meeting with Prof. @NNdjeka, 🇿🇦National TB Programme Manager, I highlighted South Africa’s leadership in TB research – including the TB PRACTECAL trial that led to @WHO’s 6-month all-oral drug-resistant TB (DR-TB) regimen – now saving lives worldwide.

South Africa’s experience with DR-TB and TB/HIV co-infection is highly relevant for the European Region as we face rising DR-TB linked to conflict & migration.

We also explored stronger interregional cooperation through TB-Free Central Asia, BRICS+ health work, and joint research on vaccines & diagnostics.
