Luis Figo and the World Tuberculosis Cup - Russian

International soccer star Luis Figo takes part in this animated football match against Tuberculosis. TB is still a major public health problem, killing nearly 2 million people a year (4,500 people a day). This educational video describes the symptoms associated with Tuberculosis, the cure for the disease, and ways to help prevent the spread of it. Financial aid will play a huge role in the fight against TB. As Luis Figo says, "To beat Tuberculosis, we need support from all people and governments. The world is in danger, and we must win this fight."
