Who knew a meet up of TB modellers could be so much fun!
Such a wonderful bunch of bright, open and friendly folks, dedicated to ending TB
I'd be willing to bet that some new collaborations were formed.
Thanks to BMGF for funding

>1 in 5 cases of TB globally are attributable to undernutrition, yet nutritional indicators are rarely measured. This should be a no-brainer! Measured=>managed, out now in @LancetRespirMed bit.ly/3y9o2io from @lshtm_tbmod @Rein_Houben @Pranay_md @yu_cns @LSHTM_TB

5/ 📢 Perhaps our most striking finding is that improving access to timely treatment for men with tuberculosis (in line with national ACF targets) reduces #TB incidence and mortality in women by ~10% and children by ~20%.

ALT Percent decline in TB incidence (top) and mortality (bottom) in 2035, by target population (men, women, both men and women), for interventions to increase active case finding for TB (left), to reduce tobacco smoking (middle), and to reduce harmful alcohol consumption (right). Each plot shows median model estimates (bar) and model uncertainty (error bars) for the total population (dark blue), men (light blue), women (red), and children (green).

Given the substantial resources required for efficacy trials and the limited amount of funding available for TB vaccine development, it is crucial that trial end-points are carefully selected and study designs are as efficient as possible. bit.ly/3KmTGgZ

Historically we've observed that as countries become wealthier, the prevalence of tuberculosis (TB) disease reduces. But, who benefits?
In our new paper 😎in @PLOSMedicine, we answer this question by analysing data from consecutive Viet Nam TB prevalence surveys 🧵 1/5
