Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, TB was the leading cause of death from a single infectious agent globally, surpassing HIV/AIDS.In 2020, the South-East Asia region accounted for 43% of global TB cases, with India contributing the highest share at 26% [1]. India also reported 38% of global TB deaths among HIV-negative individuals and 34% of total TB.
