South Africa's united pledge to  STOP TB - BECAUSE I CAN!

Tuberculosis is preventable and curable, yet our people still die from this scourge. To fight TB, we require the efforts of every South African, to stand together, therefore I pledge that:

• I will go for an examination if I cough for longer than two weeks;
• I will advise anyone who coughs for more than two weeks to go for an examination;
• I will take my treatment until the end if I am diagnosed with TB;
• I will help TB patients take their medication everyday; and
• I will ensure that my action does not stigmatise TB patients.
