Making Latent TB Visible: An Explainer for Global Health Impact

This animation was created as part of an awareness campaign for IMPAACT4TB and Aurum, highlighting the global challenge of latent tuberculosis — a silent threat affecting nearly a quarter of the world’s population. The video serves as an educational tool to spark dialogue around short-course preventive therapy. I’m proud to have contributed to a project aimed at real-world impact and meaningful change in global health.

Tuberculosis is a bacterial infection that spreads through the air. It most often affects the lungs, but can exist in any organ of the body. When a person with lung TB coughs, sneezes or spits, TB bacteria are released into the air. Another person only needs to inhale a few of these bacteria to become infected. TB remains the world’s deadliest infectious disease. In 2016 alone, it killed close to 1.7 million people, over 95 percent of which were living in low- and middle-income countries.

Every year, over 10 million people still fall ill from a disease that is both preventable and treatable. Over 10 percent of those who fall ill from the disease are co-infected with HIV, and another 10 percent are children.
