Ireland's TB Eradication Programme: Discussion

3:30 pm

Mr. Michael Sheahan:

I think it is because, as we have outlined, the incidence of the disease is far lower level now than previously. If we keep spending at the current rate to 2030, it will amount to a further €1 billion. That is why we believe there is significant urgency to getting everyone around the table to try to eradicate the disease as quickly as possible.
