The event is to mark World Tuberculosis Day across Wales. The aim of the day is to raise public and professional awareness about TB and its ongoing impact in Wales; discuss TB prevention; recent advances in treatment; and the challenges we still face and to highlight and celebrate recent TB-related research; projects; and innovations in Wales. We aim to bring together healthcare professionals; policymakers; researchers; and patients to share insights; discuss best practices; and build a unified approach to TB elimination.
