World TB Day, 24 March 2008: I am Stopping TB!
World TB Day is an occasion to urge action to stop tuberculosis, a disease which still kills an appalling 4,000 people every day. The man-made multidrug-resistant strain and its even more lethal form, extensively drug-resistant TB, are both spreading. "I am stopping TB" is not just the theme for this Day, but a pledge we must uphold as we battle the epidemic throughout the year and into the future. This page contains all official posters plus the messages from the PAHO Director and the UN Secretary General.
