Résumé

Four claims were partially confirmed: the WHO stating the 2026 Global Tuberculosis Report recorded 1.1 million TB deaths in India in 2025; the report showing a 35% decline in TB deaths in India since 2015; earlier coverage indicating a 38% reduction in TB mortality; and earlier coverage noting a 94% treatment-success rate for drug-susceptible TB cases. One claim, that INSIGHTS IAS noted the report omitted incidence estimates while a survey calibration is pending, had not enough evidence to verify. No claims were fully confirmed or refuted.
