CDC released new interim guidance in Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report for a 4-month rifapentine-moxifloxacin treatment regimen to treat drug-susceptible pulmonary TB disease in the United States.

CDC has resources on the 4-month rifapentine-moxifloxacin regimen for healthcare providers and TB programs, including

• An updated Treatment of TB Disease webpage that includes a regimen table, considerations for specific groups of people with TB disease, and a comparison table of TB disease treatment regimens,
• A checklist to ensure the correct timing of testing and monitoring for patients through the regimen, and
• A Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) webpage for providers to address common questions about the 4-month regimen.

Each year we recognize World TB Day on March 24 to commemorate the date Dr. Robert Koch announced his discovery of the bacillus that causes tuberculosis (TB). World TB Day is also a day to educate the public about the impact of TB around the world.

Check out CDC’s World TB Day website for resources to assist in World TB Day 2022 planning efforts:

• World TB Day Digital toolkit has graphics and videos to help spread the message to think, test, and treat TB.
• World TB Day Events timeline showcases events happening around the United States. To add your event, follow the instructions on the World TB Day event form.

As World TB Day approaches, additional resources and materials will be available on CDC's World TB day website.
