SRINAGAR, INDIAN ADMINISTERED KASHMIR KASHMIR, INDIA - MARCH 23: A health care professional adds red mark on the register after testing positive for the Tuberculosis at Kashmir’s lone chest diseases hospital established by Christian missionaries over a century ago primarily for treatment of tuberculosis and other chest diseases on the World Tuberculosis Day on March 23, 2015 in Srinagar, the summer capital of Indian administered Kashmir, India. Tuberculosis is one of the world's most infectious killers affecting 12 million people, International studies on the disease have revealed that about 2 million people die from TB yearly with 98 percent coming from developing countries, with India adds an estimated 99,000 drug-resistant TB cases every year, India has approximately two to three million people infected with TB, but only a tiny fraction of those infected receive the proper drugs to treat the inveterate disease through the government-funded program. India's inadequate government-run tuberculosis treatment programs and a lack of regulation of the sale of drugs that fight the disease are responsible for the spiraling number of drug-resistant cases that are difficult to treat. The World Health Organization has also included the India in the list of high-burdened countries contributing 80 percent of the world's TB problem. 24 March is recognized as World Tuberculosis Day.
