UN Envoy Says TB-HIV Co-Infections Need Common EffortMarch 26, 2008 On June 9, the UN will hold a meeting at its headquarters in New York to discuss how to help the 12 million to 15 million people worldwide who are co-infected with HIV and TB, said Jorge Sampaio, the UN secretary-general's special envoy to stop TB. "What we need from that meeting is to come out of it with a common strategy to scale up efforts to systematically address HIV-TB co-infection," he said Tuesday. "Scientific knowledge leads us this way. On-the-ground experiences lead us this way."
