Race against tuberculosis: An agenda for action
Race for Health / TB Alert, 2010
This report says that the incidence of tuberculosis in Britain and its steady increase over the last 20 years – with the impact experienced disproportionately by black and minority ethnic (BME) communities – is unacceptable. It argues that standardised and fully funded TB services, at all stages of the pathway from public and professional awareness through to treatment completion, could rapidly and cost-effectively reduce the scale of this problem. It also recommends that service design and delivery should involve multi-sector partnerships including the health sector, local government, third sector organisations and service users.
