Mudug TB Hospital

00:00:05:21 - 00:00:11:00
When I was first diagnosed
with TB, I felt devastated.

00:00:07:06 - 00:00:15:14
First Name
Abdi
Last Name
Mohamed
Fonction
TB Patient, Galkayo North

00:00:11:13 - 00:00:19:03
I felt as though I had an incurable
and deadly disease.

00:00:19:03 - 00:00:24:05
Statement
BPaLM treatment regimen is a game changer for TB patients in conflict prone contexts like Somalia where access to healthcare is limited and treatment adherence and patient monitoring is difficult.

00:00:24:05 - 00:00:28:15
I previously took the medication for six
months but I still tested positive again.

TB Patient, Galkayo North

00:00:28:15 - 00:00:33:01
Now, I have been taking the
medication for 40 days.

00:00:33:01 - 00:00:41:09
I see a better future ahead. I hope
I will go back to my initial healthy life.

00:00:41:16 - 00:00:52:00
In order to return to my daily work
so that I resume my normal life.

00:00:52:00 - 00:00:57:10
Where I came from, there are many
challenges but the biggest challenge

00:00:57:10 - 00:01:03:13
facing me currently is that I don’t have
any income. I am not a resident

00:01:03:13 - 00:01:08:07
of this town and I have
no wealth or a home here.

00:01:08:07 - 00:01:16:04
Those with TB symptoms should
go to the TB hospital for tests.

00:01:16:18 - 00:01:18:09
I advice them to take
the medication because

00:01:18:19 - 00:01:24:01
it will make them feel
better soon after.
