COVID-19 could lead to 95,000 tuberculosis deaths in India: Study

A recent study published in the European Respiratory Journal (ERJ) estimates that the COVID-19 pandemic could result in 95,000 people dying of tuberculosis in India. This has been estimated majorly because of the disruptions in the health services caused by coronavirus as well as delays in diagnosis and treatment of TB that could come because of the overwhelming load of COVID-19 patients.
