This change didn't come overnight! Thank you to the advocates, researchers, and organizations who know that no one should die of TB, and to YOU for helping people around the world with your advocacy! #TBSky

Small reminder that action works: GDF announced a new price for bedaquiline: $90 per treatment, a 54% reduction since Aug 2023. Thx to @tbfighters.org for joining the fight! Bdq price is now in the target range ($48-102 ) estimated in 2017, and considered wildly unrealistic by naysayers.
