Grounded prescription
Closing the TB detection gap: notify, test, and trace the missing cases before MDR-TB compoundsWith roughly 280,000 incident TB cases a year and a growing MDR-TB sub-burden, DGHS should lead with mandatory case notification, resistance testing at diagnosis, adherence support, and contact tracing before the resistant fraction compounds.

Bangladesh Health System: Remarkable Gains, Persistent Gaps, and the Path to Universal CoverageThe assessment compares the latest source observation with BDPolicyLab analytical monitoring bands. For this detector, higher readings indicate greater stress; the internal analytical cutoffs are 10 per 100k, 50 per 100k, 150 per 100k, 300 per 100k. The score is a level-anchored piecewise-linear transformation with state bands at 20, 40, 60, and 85. Benchmark reference: WHO End TB Strategy: pre-elimination <10 per 100,000; low-burden threshold <100; Bangladesh is a WHO high-TB-burden country. The indicator's primary source is identified with the evidence in this card. Forecast ranges are published only as calibrated 80% predictive intervals with an explicit source time unit.
BDPolicyLab analytical classification based on the stated assessment basis. It is not an official agency designation.
No public forecast is shown because the validation or time-unit requirement was not met.
