Although the ongoing research on Tuberculosis from few past years has provided valuable information about Tuberculosis transmission, detection and treatment. TB puts stress on public health because of its high mortality rates after HIV. WHO is working closely with countries partners and civil societies in scaling up the TB response. In India National strategic plan (2017-2025) has a national goal of elimination of TB by 2025. It requires increased awareness and understanding of TB.

Interferon gamma release assay (IGRAs) are whole blood tests in diagnosing TB but unable to distinguish Tuberculosis Infection from TB disease.
