How Do TB Vaccines Affect TB Rates in High-Burden Countries? | Tuberculosis Disease Guide News

How Do TB Vaccines Affect TB Rates in High-Burden Countries? In this informative video, we will discuss the impact of tuberculosis vaccines, particularly the Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine, on tuberculosis rates in high-burden countries. We’ll explore how this vaccine is administered primarily to infants and young children in regions where tuberculosis is widespread and the role it plays in protecting against severe forms of the disease. The conversation will also touch on the varying effectiveness of the BCG vaccine against different types of tuberculosis, especially in adults. Additionally, we will highlight the importance of a comprehensive approach to tuberculosis control that includes vaccination, early diagnosis, and treatment of active cases. We will address the challenges faced in high-burden areas, including co-infection with HIV and socio-economic factors that can affect vaccine efficacy. Furthermore, ongoing research aimed at developing new vaccines will be discussed, focusing on their potential to improve protection across all age groups.
