STOP TB: KUNG KAYA MO, KAYA KO. The theme of the World TB day celebration tells that tuberculosis is everyone's concern and that all are encouraged to be part of the advocacy to combat TB reducing it to 50% by 2015. These are the words expressed by Dr. Evelyn B. Magsayo, the Center for Health development (CHD) - 10 Regional Medical Coordinator of the National Tuberculosis Control Program (NTP) at the event held at Café Laguna on April 30. She added that though Philippines has reached 90% in its success rate, still, tuberculosis is a high burden of the country. (Junee Donna S.
