"Madam President, an annual mortality rate of between 1.6 and 2 million people makes tuberculosis one of the two major causes of death worldwide from infectious diseases. This justifies the growing concern globally of public health organisations.
In an age when medicine is making spectacular advances, we must acknowledge that the time has come for the traditional tuberculosis BCG vaccine to be replaced with a new, more modern and much more effective one. However, this cannot be achieved without, on the one hand, granting more generous EU funds for completing the research in this area and, on the other hand, finding other sources of funding by reviewing the model proposed by the TBVI for alternative, innovative funding methods.
Providing financial guarantees may make this model more attractive to the European business community, thereby ensuring its involvement and the necessary financial support."@en1
