Yesterday, we raised awareness on life after TB.

We spoke with 16 community leaders — including traditional healers and religious leaders — about the importance of recognising post-TB symptoms and encouraging annual check-ups for two years after treatment. #posttbcare

Today we spoke to drivers, cleaners & vendors at Site C Taxi Rank in Khayelitsha about TB as they meet hundreds daily.

We shared:
🦠 Causes & symptoms
😷 Infection control
💊 Preventive therapy
💬 Post-TB care & TB stigma

Know the signs. Break the stigma. Protect each other. #EndTB #PostTBCare
