Über diesen Podcast
The TBPod is a podcast for clinicians and policymakers caring for
patients with tuberculosis. The podcasts present discussions with
expert clinicians, researchers, policymakers and advocates about
their work in the field of tuberculosis. Tuberculosis remains one
of the leading causes of death worldwide, and is an important
contributor to morbidity among migrants arriving in Australia and
New Zealand. There are around 1300 reported cases of TB in
Australia each year, and a further 300 in New Zealand. Included in
these figures are cases of multi-drug resistant (MDR) TB which pose
significant barriers to treatment and management of the disease.
The Australian government has committed to the global elimination
of TB by 2030, but to do so requires the development of innovative
new strategies, based on high-quality research, that has national
and international reach. These podcasts aim to engage and update
those who are interested in the field of tuberculosis through
discussions with leaders in the field of tuberculosis.
