Interventions applied from July 2020 onwards to counteract the decline in numbers included: integrated screening of patients with respiratory symptoms for TB and COVID-19; improved contact tracing of index patients with TB and COVID-19; and strict infection control practices at health facilities which were promoted to try and encourage symptomatic patients to attend.
