(Liu Yingqi, People's Daily Health Client) "At present, the mainland's tuberculosis prevention and control has achieved remarkable results, but at the same time, the mainland's tuberculosis prevention and control still faces five challenges.

Liu Jianjun said: "Since the State Council issued the first national tuberculosis prevention and control plan in 2001 and established a national tuberculosis prevention and control agency, two sets of data are enough to illustrate the current effectiveness of disease prevention and control. One group is the treatment and care of existing patients, and the global TB mortality rate is still as high as 17/100,000, compared with only 2.1/100,000 in China. Second, the trend of tuberculosis epidemic change, the global decline is slow, the annual decline rate is only 1.5%, while China's annual decline rate is 3.2%, China is more than twice the global. ”
But at the same time, Liu Jianjun also stressed that it should be realized that the prevention and treatment of tuberculosis in the mainland still faces five challenges, such as the low detection rate of drug-resistant tuberculosis patients, the low rate of treatment, the low cure rate, and the high number of new drug-resistant patients, ranking second in the world. In addition, the prevention and treatment of key populations and latently infected people has not yet formed a situation. ”
