For those of you working on IDU issues both on the HIV and TB sides, the WHO has produced a new manual on this important topic. see weblink below.
FYI, some people are beginning to speak of Global Fund Round 9 as a "TB Round" - i.e. a round where countries should think strategically about how to scale up TB work. If your country has a serious TB problem (see your DALY Map to check, if you're not sure), now would be the time to have a meeting with the national TB program, to see if there's a role for PSI.
