End TB-related stigma within medical & healthcare fraternity, says Dr Sruti Laya of government-run Kakatiya Medical College in Warangal, Telangana, India. She was speaking in End TB Dialogues at the 78th National Conference of Tuberculosis and Chest Diseases (NATCON) in Thrissur, Kerala, India.

Stigma - all forms of TB stigma including TB stigma within healthcare settings and self-stigma is a BARRIER to accessing existing healthcare services. Ending all forms of stigma and discrimination is vital cog-in-the-wheel to improve ACCESS to existing TB services for those in need.
