(1). My name is Nobuhle Ngubane.
I reside in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa.
I'm 29 years old, a wife and mother of 3.
Sadly though, I was diagnosed with MDR-TB a few weeks back.

For World Tuberculosis Month,@SHAWCO_UCT already started to spotlight TB by raising awareness in efforts to break down the #stigma. They plan to do this at their weekly SHAWCO Clinics and at the UCT Faculty of Health Sciences @UCT_news

A community member from Hammanskraal, had the following to say about CHWs in their community:

“They are so friendly and easy to talk to. They taught me about TB and drugs.”

“There is no more powerful message than the experiences of people who have lived with TB. And stigma is central to every related TB agenda, whether it's drugs, access or diagnostics," says @blessi_k @G_C_T_A in this piece on TB stigma #WorldTBDay https://t.co/SnDG1NzG1T

@bosmangrobler @moloisrj @TBProof @UnmaskStigma @ingridsuidA A humbling post Bosman. We have such short memories in the UK where TB used to kill tens of thousands of people each year before the BCG vaccination.
