How do #VaccinesWork❓

1⃣ Vaccines contain weakened non-dangerous parts of an antigen
2⃣ It's enough that our body can learn to build the specific antibody
3⃣ This will prompt our immune system to respond & defeat the real antigen in the future

It's #WorldTBDay

Even as we battle #COVID19, we must not ease up the fight against #Tuberculosis, which remains the πŸŒŽπŸŒπŸŒβ€™s deadliest infectious killer. Each day this preventable & curable disease causes:
πŸ”Έ>4000 deaths
πŸ”Έ~28000 new cases

Let's #EndTB

bit.ly/EndTB2021
Only 2⃣ in 3⃣ people with #tuberculosis are known to be getting quality care and #COVID19 is making this worse. We need to scale up systematic screening and access to essential TB services to #EndTB.

Only 1️⃣ in 3️⃣ people with drug-resistant #tuberculosis are known to be getting the treatment they need. We need to expand access to WHO-recommended fully-oral treatment regimens that improve treatment outcomes and save lives.
