A project in the Evaristo de Moraes prison in Acre was highlighted at a national health‑care showcase after achieving perfect treatment adherence and cure rates, despite the state reporting over 500 new TB cases in 2025, above the national average. Municipal officials praised the coordinated surveillance and the mayor’s commitment to universal health access. Two weeks later, health authorities in other Brazilian municipalities reported scaling up TB response activities. In Aquidauana, a training session equipped local health workers with skills for early detection, diagnosis, treatment monitoring and side‑effect management.
