Tuberculosis and HIV — Progress towards the 2020 targert

Date of publication:

Review / Summary: 

The estimates show that, by 2017, five low- or middle-income countries achieved or exceeded the target of a 75% reduction in TB deaths among people living with HIV, three years ahead of schedule—India (84%), Eritrea (83%), Djibouti (78%), Malawi (78%) and Togo (75%). A further 18 countries reduced TB deaths among people living with HIV by more than 50% and are on track to achieve the target by the end of 2020, provided that scale-up of services is maintained. However, the estimates also show that most countries are not on track and that deaths are rising in some regions and countries.
