Tuberculosis: A case study in lagging technology

• Tuberculosis is a pandemic ranking second only to HIV as the leading killer infectious disease of adults worldwide.

• 1/3 of the world’s population is currently infected with TB

• Today’s first-line TB drugs are over 47 years old

• Diagnostics (chest x-rays & sputum microscopy) are over 100 years old)

• Tuberculosis drugs are not particularly profitable…
