TB Care Delivery: Train health care workers on collaborative Raising awareness about the TB in rural areas. And printed awareness raising material disseminate in rural areas. The Global Plan to Stop TB 2006–2015 set out the scale at which TB/HIV interventions should be implemented, in the context of the goal of universal access to treatment by 2010. The major targets were to test 85% of TB patients for HIV by 2010, and to sustain this level of testing up to 2015; to provide 95% of HIV-positive TB patients with CPT by 2010; and to enrol around 300 000 HIV-positive TB patients on ART by 2010. Ambitious targets for TB screening among people living with HIV and provision of IPT to HIV-positive people without active TB disease were also set. These were to screen close to 100% of people in HIV care services for TB on a routine basis, and to enrol approximately 10% of the global total of people living with HIV on IPT by 2010. TB-HIV: TB/HIV activities and management of HIV-associated TB. People living with HIV are 20 to 37 times more likely to develop TB disease during their lifetimes than people who are HIV-negative.27 HIV and TB are so closely connected that the term ‘co-epidemic’ or ‘dual epidemic’ is often used to describe their relationship, which is also referred to as TB/HIV (or HIV/TB). JAGGARTA will provide reffral service to those TB affected people of they unable to reach hospital due to poverty and provide guideline for using drugs. |
