The number of new tuberculosis (TB) cases worldwide decreased for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic, with a nearly 2% drop in cases and a 3% decrease in deaths in 2024. Despite this progress, TB remains a leading cause of death, with 10.7 million cases and 1.23 million deaths reported. The WHO emphasizes the need for continued efforts and funding to combat TB, warning that cuts to health programs could lead to millions more cases and deaths in the coming years.
