This day has been chosen not occasionally. 123 years ago on March 24 Robert Koch addressed a meeting about the discovery of the pathogene of this disease. In the 1982 in the connection with the centenary anniversary of the discovery by Koch IUATLD suggested announcing this data as International Day of Struggle against TB to appeal to the society that the struggle with this disease represents world-wide importance.
TB is a mortally dangerous and contagious disease. Death rate and loss of capacity for work because of the infection represent a great problem for many highly developed countries, as the disease inflicts people at the age of 15 – 54.
TB takes lives of 2 million people annually, though there are effective medicines for its treatment.
The motto of the International Day of Struggle against TB in Russia: “Future free from TB depends on YOU!”
Personal knowledge of every member of the society about this dangerous contagious disease is an effective weapon in this struggle. In Russia more than 30 000 people die from TB annually and more than 120 000 cases of TB are registered.
In the 2003-2004 the Minister of Health and Social Development of Russia signed a number of documents, conductive to the effectiveness of anti-TB measures. The realization of the international project against TB has also been updated.
In the course of the conference there will be organized a charity performance, which will take place in the Central House of Journalist (Nikitsky Boulevard, 8a), on March 23, 2005 at 18.00.
