The UK is committed to tackling TB. This includes our funding to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, to which we pledged £1.4 billion in the sixth replenishment (2020-2022). We also invest in TB research and innovation to help people access new TB treatments and diagnostics. Our health investments help countries affected by TB to build stronger and more inclusive health systems to address all causes of ill health.
