THANKS TO TREATMENT, I WAS CURED
My name is Raul. I’m 32 years old and I couldn’t believe that my coughing and sputum was caused by tuberculosis, but I was cured. I invite all who suffer from tuberculosis to get cured like I did.
TUBERCULOSIS IS CURABLE!
THE REMEDY AGAINST TUBERCULOSIS
STRICTLY SUPERVISED SHORT-COURSE TREATMENT (SSST):
· It cures patients
· It saves millions of lives
· It reduces transmission
· It prevents anti-tuberculosis drug resistance
· In Mexico, it is free of charge
WE ARE ENDING WITH THE SOCIAL STIGMA OF TUBERCULOSIS
In Mexico we have a strategy called
“THE WHITE FLAG”
by which political, teaching, and ecclesiastic authorities as well as social leaders in conjunction with the community support the Mexican Action Plan.
IN MEXICO, TIMELY
DETECTION COVERAGE
MEASURES WERE EXTENDED
We have four mobile laboratories that travel through far and isolated roads carrying out sputum analysis, which enable us to timely identify the sick and cure them.
