Underreported: TB and HIV/AIDS

Thursday, August 17, 2006

Up to half of those living with HIV/AIDS develop tuberculosis. On today’s Underreported, we’ll explore TB’s impact on the HIV/AIDS epidemic, and ask how AIDS is fueling a TB resurgence. We’ll talk to lawyer and longtime HIV/AIDS and TB activist Ezio T. Santos Filho. He's been living with HIV since the early 1980s, and has twice survived TB. Rachel Guglielmo, Director of Public Health Watch for the Open Society Institute, joins him.
