Tuberculosis remains a major public health problem in India. Over 2 million people die of tuberculosis worldwide each year and 4 Lakh of them die in India alone. Tuberculosis represents 3.75 of India disease burden, 11 times that of malaria and is leading cause of death in the 1545 year group.
And in our native town Meerut, Knowledge and awareness regarding Pulmonary Tuberculosis in patients at DOTS centre, Urban Meerut is very poor. There is a great need to educate the people about misconceptions like food and utensils as mode of transmission. BCC using the person to person contact in community, at health center and awareness campaigns are crucial in educating the ignorance seen in our field practice area,
We want support from you to reduce the fear of TB in patients & people because TB control program will remain ineffective unless myths and fears of TB patients are addressed related to causation of tuberculosis, mode of spread, and methods of prevention. |
