Optimizing Investments in Belarus' Tuberculosis Response

Optimizing Investments in Belarus' Tuberculosis Response

This report summarizes the findings of an allocative efficiency study of Belarus’ Tuberculosis (TB) response, which was conducted using the Optima-TB model in 2016-17. Epidemic projections made in the Optima-TB model suggest that with the current level of TB spending (US$61.8 million in 2015) and...
