Amongst other papers, this issue features two articles on tuberculosis, as well as an interview with Dr Mario Raviglione, Director of the WHO Stop TB Department. 24 March marked World TB Day which commemorates the day in 1882 when Dr Robert Koch announced that he had discovered the cause of tuberculosis, the TB bacillus. 130 years later TB is still spreading at a rapid rate. This first issue of Pathogens and Global Health highlights the grave threat that this disease still poses to public health.
