Hanoi’s tuberculosis (TB) prevention programme was effectively implemented in all communes and wards in 2020, benefiting all the population of the capital city.
Vietnam is now able to treat all strains of multi-drug-resistant and totally drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) with short-term treatment regimens using newly accessible drugs.
Vietnam is striving to reduce the rate of tuberculosis (TB) patients to 131 cases/100,000 people and the fatality rate from the disease to lower than 10/100,000 people by 2020.
