A nurse attends to the children’s ward of the National Tuberculosis Hospital in Kyrgyzstan. According to the World Health Organization, more than 250,000 children develop TB each year, and for around 100,000 of them, TB is fatal. Global Fund-supported programs to fight tuberculosis, AIDS and malaria are working to improve children's health worldwide and contribute to the United Nations Millennium Development goal of reducing child mortality by two-thirds by 2015.
