5.1Progress towards TB Control Targets
Kenya is progressing well with a performance that meets and exceeds expectations. The country
has met the short term WHO targets of case detection and treatment success rate of 82% and
88% respectively. The country has reversed upward trend of the burden of TB disease and there
is a sustained decline in prevalence, incidence and mortality attributable to TB. The gains made
in TB control is a manifestation of support and contribution of partners and funders that include
USAID/CDC, GFATM, WHO, JICA and local and international CSOs under the framework of
the TB Inter-agency coordinating committee (TBICC) and aspirations captured in the DLTLD
national strategic plan 2006-2010 & 2011-2015.
