lpv:translated text	"I am very happy to lend my support to a pan-European project that offers added value not only to Europe but also to the world in its aim of eventually eliminating tuberculosis. In 2009, tuberculosis killed 1.7 million people, or 4 700 people per day. The World Bank estimates that it causes an annual economic loss to Africa of USD 52 billion. The cases reported in the United Kingdom and Ireland in summer 2010 also remind us that this disease remains a serious problem for the European Union. Thanks to the Tuberculosis Vaccine Initiative (TBVI), it will be possible to create effective vaccines that are affordable for developing countries and adapted to emerging countries and Europe. The European Commission is the largest donor of official development aid, providing EUR 49 billion per year. It is not enough, however. We must find other sources of funding, such as the establishment by the Member States and/or the European Union of a financial guarantee to enable funding to be obtained from the European Investment Bank. The TBVI is a practical way of implementing the EU 2020 strategy. By making Europe more attractive, it is preparing the new economy for future generations."@en1
