A Stop TB Canada webinar exploring the impact of COVID-19 on TB

Join us for a panel discussion where you will hear first hand from healthcare workers and program implementers working in Canada and abroad to end TB!

Quotes from our speakers to take away include:

"I hope that there could be programs to support our staff; such as danger pay or additional mental health services." Dr. Ryan Cooper

"Think TB. We need to continue to think TB in clinical presentations especially during COVID-19! Treat and eradicate TB." Sharon Owlijoot

"In the beginning the government only wanted to talk about COVID-19. Essential TB and other health services were effectively shut down. We have to rethink the way we are operating." Dr. Aamir Khan

"Now more than ever it is critical that as a community committed to ending TB we share knowledge and information, pool our resources, and coordinate effectively to maximize our impact." Robyn Waite

"Advocacy for continued access to in person and virtual care for people with TB during the COVID-19 pandemic is essential!" Dr. Dina Fisher
