Around 60 percent tuberculosis cases go undiagnosed

In Nepal, TB is the number one infectious disease, which kills at least 46 people daily. The country has committed to ending TB through the WHO END TB Strategy by 2035.

Tuberculosis is curable and preventable. But this neglected infectious disease, which spreads from person to person through the air, still kills around 46 people a day in Nepal, or around 17,000 people a year.
