<p style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Dear Shilpa,<br>
<br>
The COVID-19 pandemic is wreaking havoc the world over, having a devastating impact on the health of the most vulnerable, including those living with drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB). Prior to COVID-19, only an estimated 1 in 5 patients with drug-resistant
tuberculosis successfully navigated their care. <br>
<br>
COVID-19 presents new challenges and concerns. Patients and survivors with respiratory impairment and/or lung damage may be more vulnerable to serious complications from COVID-19 – and the pandemic has seriously disrupted and weakened already-fragile systems
of delivering care to DR-TB patients.<br>
<br>
To that end, we're seeking innovative proposals for creative, easy-to-implement ideas – that can start having impact immediately – aiming to ensure continuity of DR-TB care for patients in high-burden countries (e.g., India, Indonesia, Philippines, South Africa,
Ukraine). Specifically, we are looking for ideas that address one or more of the following areas:</p>
