Dr M Sunil Kumar, State #Tuberculosis Officer, #Kerala, is among the LEADERS featured in #EndTB Dialogues - a special CNS series, presenting insightful and thought-provoking interviews with leaders to accelerate progress towards ending TB. Launched in the lead up to the 50th Union World Conference on Lung Health in October 2019, this series underpins the URGENCY to step up the fight against the epidemic.

#EndTB Dialogues feature conversations with those who have spent years in fighting the world's top infectious killer disease. Business as usual will fail us in meeting the #endTB target by 2030. New/fresh thinking is vital to reimagine every critical cog-in-the-wheel to end TB, as well as accelerate progress towards other SDGs.

Dr M Sunil Kumar is at the forefront to help shape the fight against #TB in the state, as well as, plans to eliminate latent TB. He shares insights on how Kerala state developed the plan to end TB, its implementation and journey ahead towards elimination of the pandemic.

Dr Sunil Kumar is in conversation with CNS Managing Editor Shobha Shukla. Shobha is also the Coordinator of Asia Pacific Media Alliance to end TB and #tobacco, and #beatNCDs.
