I think India should also consider this seriously. Typhoid diagnosis is tricky and unavailable for most, and empirical treatment is often unsatisfactory and unreliable. Even a 80% efficacy vaccine will be good to have. @ICMR @KaminiWalia @mdncdc
Bangladesh has begun a nationwide vaccination campaign to protect millions of children from typhoid, a life-threatening disease that is becoming increasingly resistant to antibiotics https://t.co/rau3rSU81r

This study makes a mess of our Tb diagnostic strategy we currently use- which is symptom based investigation- if 39% patients have no symptoms- where do we start? X ray imaging is less accessible than docs or labs !
If over-reliance on smear microscopy is already a problem, 39% subclinical TB cases (where people with active TB don't have symptoms) seen during the TB prevalence survey in Tamil Nadu is a bigger challenge. These people will never be tested but will transmit and infect others

There is a shortage/ stockout of FDC for Anti Tb Drugs in the entire country for the last month, which is unlikely to resolve anytime soon. Due to the Central Tb division's goof up. And we are going to eliminate TB by 2025 !! what do we tell our patients who seek Rx?@MoHFW_INDIA

तस्वीर में घुटनों पर बैठा व्यक्ति पत्रकार @journalistAshu है. वो पत्रकार जो 18 महीने पहले मारी गई #JusticeForAnkitaBhandari की लड़ाई लड़ रहा है. @pushkardhami की उत्तराखण्ड पुलिस ने जानबूझकर ये तस्वीर जारी की है. संदेश स्पष्ट है-आवाज़ उठाओगे तो ये हाल किया जाएगा. अंकिता
