An innovative and important new TB resource – Know Your Rights: Tuberculosis Prevention, Diagnosis, and Treatment Guide.

Treatment Action Group (TAG) and the DR-TB Scale-Up Treatment Action Team (DR-TB STAT) released an innovative and important new TB resource – Know Your Rights: Tuberculosis Prevention, Diagnosis, and Treatment Guide.

Know Your Rights is for people who have TB, the people who care for them, and people who are at risk for TB. The guide explains what global standards are for TB prevention, treatment, and care, so people with TB and their caregivers can know what services they have the right to receive.

The guide is divided into four sections that cover: your human rights and TB, your rights and TB prevention, your rights when it comes to TB diagnosis, and finally your rights and getting TB treatment.

Below you will find download links for the full guide, as well as PDFs of each individual section.
