Progressing towards TB elimination

Surveillance and monitoring

Two years after the launch of the Framework action plan to fight tuberculosis in the European Union, a follow-up report has been prepared. It looks at the current European situation regarding TB control, putting it into the global context, and goes on to present a monitoring framework that can be used to assess Europe’s progress towards the elimination of TB. The framework comprises four epidemiological and eight operational indicators, all of which relate to the eight strategic areas of the Action Plan.
