Response - NO
Brief Summary   Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health problem globally, compounded by the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.

Truenat® MTB Plus/SARS-CoV2 multiplex, can detect both diseases.

Goal is to determine the performance of Truenat® MTB Plus/SARS-CoV2 multiplex for TB and Covid-19 case detection using prospectively collected swabs and sputum samples. Data generated will be presented to WHO for review
