A study found that Brazil's Bolsa Família Programme, which provides cash to low-income families, significantly reduced tuberculosis (TB) risk among the poorest, particularly Indigenous, Black, and Pardo Brazilians.

Researchers emphasize that reducing poverty can improve health outcomes and suggest similar initiatives could benefit other countries. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
