International efforts have succeeded in slowing the COVID-19 pandemic, but responding to COVID-19 has also forced disruption of TB control programs around the globe. Such disruption may reverse between 5 and 8 years of progress against TB, with a recent report released by Stop TB suggesting the potential for an additional 1.4 million tuberculosis deaths by 2025, due to COVID-19-related disruption to TB prevention services (1).
The WHO and the ECDC recommend systematic latent TB testing for those at increased risk, including (2):
1. Adults, adolescents, children and infants living with HIV
2. Infants and children <5 years who are contacts of TB patients
3. Patients initiating anti-TNF treatment, receiving dialysis, preparing for organ or hematological transplantation
