The Ministry of Health in Guyana has announced plans to introduce a new treatment regimen for Tuberculosis (TB) patients later this year to shorten the treatment period by approximately two months. This innovative approach is expected to significantly benefit patients by facilitating a faster recovery process, thereby improving patient outcomes and potentially reducing the transmission rate of TB across the country. Implementing this new regimen represents a significant advancement in the fight against Tuberculosis in Guyana, reflecting the Ministry’s commitment to adopting effective strategies to combat infectious diseases.
