Five Year Haiti TB Vaccine Study Planned
Haitians and Americans announce a five year field study in Haiti to test two anti tuberculosis vaccines alongside a locally developed TB control program. The effort targets underdeveloped Caribbean regions where TB is a leading killer. Haiti’s TB prevalence and mortality are high, with about 15 percent infected and deaths far above U S rates. Mos sa Vandiviere co-director of HATI presented the plan through the North Carolina Tuberculosis Association and partners. Early data on the Ri vaccine suggest about 80 percent protection, potentially altering TB control.
