#WorldTBDay:-Tuberculosis (TB) cases rise in England :- https://lnkd.in/eMwAiJii. Case numbers in the UK have begun to rise due to a combination of factors. These include increased migration of people from areas of the world where TB is more common than in the UK and the increased mobility of the UK population. An ageing population and the emergence of HIV, have also added to this increase. We all have a responsibility to help eradicate #TB.

Embrace the truth, break the stigma, and empower individuals to make informed decisions for their well-being and the well-being of the community. 🩹🌍 #HealthEquality

Louisiana currently ranks 3rd and 4th in the nation for the concentration of individuals living with HIV within the state. Proposed cuts to HIV funding by politicians could exacerbate the rise in new cases, further impacting our communities. It is imperative to advocate for what is ethically sound, ensuring the comprehensive health and well-being of our citizens. - Reductions in funding would result in individuals being deprived of crucial medication. - This deprivation directly correlates with increased mortality rates. We must not allow the US Government to perpetuate a silent genocide within our own Nation.

Queer people, people who use drugs, and those experiencing homelessness need your advocacy! It only takes 10 seconds. The Massachusetts House Ways and Means Committee released its FY25 budget recommendations, and it unfortunately cut the HIV/AIDS/HCV Line Item (4512-0103) by $4.5 million. A $4.5 million reduction in funding will result in fewer HIV, Hepatitis C, and STI (sexually transmitted infections) services, a reduction in Syringe Services Programs (SSPs) that have been critical in reducing new infections and getting people into drug treatment, and the elimination of workforce development initiatives to recruit and retain vital public health staff. Rep. Jack Patrick Lewis (D-Framingham) has filed Amendment # 602 to the House Ways and Means budget to restore the $4.5M. We need your help to see that amendment succeed.
