Four questions • Where should donors invest? • If ‘DOTS don’t do it’ what does? • What will ARV drugs do for TB? • How can we monitor progress?

Four answers • TB investment? 22 high burden countries; especially those where AIDS is high. • What might work? Find and cure (better DOTS); refer TB patients for ARV; cut HIV transmission. • What will ARVs do for TB? Reduce TB in late stage HIV; little impact on overall transmission • Monitoring? Draw on unused local programme data, surveys, expertise and knowledge.
Stategic decision making needs... Strategic data Currently national, aggregated data; local disaggregatged data; surveys; etc. Understand the epidemiology Good models to explain and predict; refinements for HIV Test impact Impact of DOTS programmes; investigate context; monitoring part of treatment.
