❓ Pourquoi observe-t-on une hausse de 10 % des cas de tuberculose à Bruxelles ?

« La tuberculose est étroitement liée à la précarité. À Bruxelles, un nombre croissant de personnes se heurtent à des obstacles dans l’accès aux soins. Parallèlement, les organisations font face à une diminution des financements dans le secteur social. Il est de la responsabilité des pouvoirs publics de s’emparer de cette problématique. »

During the World TB Day 2026 flag-off in Ibadan, the Honourable Commissioner for Health, Dr. Oluwaserimi Adewumi Ajetunmobi, alongside top officials from the State Ministry of Health, Damien Foundation Belgium, and other key partners, came together with one clear message: it is time to move beyond awareness to decisive action through stronger policies and resilient health systems.

The event was not just symbolic—it delivered real impact within the community through:

🛑 Free TB screening and essential healthcare services
🛑 Free chest X-rays for early and accurate TB diagnosis
🛑 Community sensitization and awareness on tuberculosis
🛑 TB survivor stories to inspire hope and reduce stigma

Together, we are strengthening the fight against tuberculosis and bringing lifesaving services closer to the people who need them most.

Tuberculosis (TB) is preventable and curable—but early detection is key.

If you or someone you know has a persistent cough, fever, weight loss, or night sweats, don’t ignore the signs. Get tested early and seek care immediately.

Together, we can stop TB and save lives.

Yes! We Can End TB.

With the right care, support, and determination, Mr. Babalola fought back… and won.
His journey is a powerful reminder that:
✨ TB is curable
✨ Early detection saves lives

Today, Mr. Babalola stands strong, a living testimony that recovery is possible.

Every survivor is proof that we can end TB.
