Abstract excerpt

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), remains a major global health challenge and the leading cause of death from a single infectious agent. Despite diagnostic and therapeutic advances, the COVID-19 pandemic reversed progress in TB control, with a notable rise in incidence across Latin America. This region bears a disproportionate burden of the disease due to socioeconomic inequality,...
