Take Action

We believe tuberculosis is a complex social justice issue, so we tackle it from multiple angles, including government policy, funding, and access. You can join us and save lives by demanding affordable testing, advocating to protect government global health funding, or educating yourself and others. Pick the lane that looks most interesting, fun, or important to you!

Things change quickly in the TB landscape! To stay updated on the latest calls to action, follow TBFighters on social media and subscribe to our newsletter.

CartridgeAffordable Testing

Danaher makes some of the best-in-class TB tests, yet they grossly overprice the tests for the people who can least afford it. In 2023, after pressure from TBFighters and others, Danaher promised to sell their basic GeneXpert tests at cost. However, since then, we have seen no evidence of their promised third-party audit. TBFighters are keeping up an active campaign to remind Danaher of these promises and urge them to lower the prices on all of their tests, not just one.
