Uzbek Nurses Receive Materials to Improve Tuberculosis (TB) Education

The USAID TB control program, implemented by Project HOPE, together with the Republican Institute of Health distributed 10,000 brochures “Think about TB” in Uzbek and Russian languages among patronage Uzbekistan’s nurses. These brochures will help nurses educate their communities on TB issues. The program also prepared and distributed an electronic package of educational materials and the latest information about TB. As in all Central Asia, TB is a widespread disease in Uzbekistan. USAID has been engaged in its control and prevention since 1998.
