UK TB clinicians recognise long-term physical and psychosocial problems among TB survivors. Follow-up care is being offered by some TB services, however this is variable and constrained by resources. We need better UK data on post-TB outcomes.

Up to 50% of TB survivors face lasting lung damage—even after cure. Post-TB lung disease is real, underrecognized, and impacts lives. We need prevention, diagnosis & care beyond treatment. https://t.co/GlK0sX9X2A

@padmasayee @TheLancet Congratulations! And an important insight into how much the great TB team @LNWH_NHS go above and beyond!

May need to apologise to my mother for lots of dismissive comments over the years... 😳

Did we just find out cold weather can actually, based on data, increase your chance of getting sick?

Our #fuelpoverty review stated cold housing & mould damage children's lungs, as explained in @thetimes by @michaelmarmot; #fuelpoverty is evidence of avoidable health inequalities, exacerbated by 10 years of #Austerity #buildbackfairer

@chigesh79 RIP Dr Kam, you were so kind and so good.

[Ailva O'Reilly @ailvaoreilly]

Great discussion, really insightful. Key messages for me:
- TB survivors have more to contribute to the future agenda than simply recounting their experiences
- we must reflect on the underlying reasons for poor aherence to truly make Rx patient centred
- post TB care neglected!
