Estimates show median and (in brackets) 95% Bayesian credible intervals, both estimated from n = 200 posterior samples, all relative to a ‘status quo’ scenario. Estimates at regional level and global level are in bold. We show averted RR-TB cases and deaths by an M72-like vaccine alone and in combination with improved RR-TB management. The vaccine is assumed to reduce the risk of reactivation by 50%, and to be deployed amongst adults and adolescents with latent TB infection in the population.
