Western Cape government launches TB dashboard

 The Western Cape government has launched the first-of-a-kind public-facing TB dashboard, which is designed to assist in monitoring the implementation of the province’s multi-sectoral TB response plan.

Premier Alan Winde announcement the launch, where he pledged to use the lessons learnt from the province’s swift response to the Covid-19 pandemic in the fight against TB.

It also follows the premier’s promise in the State of the Province Address to treat the TB epidemic with the same seriousness as the province has in fighting against Covid-19.

“TB has long been an epidemic in the Western Cape, and the dashboard will assist us in collating real-time data to respond effectively.” Winde said.

Premier Winde said that the aim of the dashboard is to “get the TB response, back on track”.
