Help Stop Tuberculosis!
At KNCV, we believe that only by working together we can create a world free of TB. We join our efforts with global authorities, National Tuberculosis Programs, community leaders, research institutions, advocacy groups, and working alongside people with TB.
At least 142 people die every hour secondary to tuberculosis globally.
Tuberculosis occurs in every part of the world! Although tuberculosis is preventable, detectable, and curable, up to 1.3 million people lose their life because of it.
You can help us stop the world's deadliest infectious disease!
Together we can End TB!
