Singing a different tune

At the launch of the India TB Research and Development Corporation – a flagship initiative by Indian Council of Medical Research that aims to bring together all major national and international stakeholders to develop new tools (drug, diagnostics, vaccines) for TB – the discussion was threatening to turn really serious when a doctor decided to take things in her hands. She broke into a song – “I wanna stop TB, stop TB, stop TB” – and laid down some of our habits that could lead to TB, how one could get rid of these habits and what sort of treatment is available in case one gets the disease.
