世界卫生组织发布了新的结核病伦理指导，旨在帮助各国在实施终止结核病战略时遵守伦理标准，保护受影响者的权利。1结核病是全球顶级传染病杀手，每天造成5000人死亡。1超过三分之一的结核病患者（430万人）未被诊断或未被报告。1
该指导涵盖隔离、监狱患者权利、针对移民的歧视性政策等问题。1WHO强调了五项关键伦理义务：为患者提供社会支持、避免不必要隔离患者、确保重点人群获得同等医疗标准、保障卫生工作者安全和迅速分享研究证据。1
为推进全球结核病防控工作，WHO宣布将于2017年11月在莫斯科召开首次全球卫生部长结核病防控会议。1此外，2018年还将召开联合国大会关于结核病的高级别会议。1
The World Health Organization has released new ethical guidance designed to help countries uphold ethical standards while implementing strategies to end tuberculosis and safeguard the rights of affected individuals.1 The initiative addresses a critical global health challenge, as tuberculosis claims approximately 5,000 lives daily and remains the world's leading infectious disease killer.1 Additionally, more than one-third of tuberculosis patients—some 4.3 million people—remain undiagnosed or unreported.1
The WHO's ethical framework establishes five key obligations for tuberculosis control programs: providing social support to patients, avoiding unnecessary patient isolation, ensuring vulnerable populations receive equitable medical care standards, protecting the safety of healthcare workers, and rapidly sharing research evidence.1 The guidance specifically addresses concerns including involuntary isolation, the rights of incarcerated patients, and discriminatory policies targeting migrants.1
To advance global commitment to tuberculosis elimination, the WHO has announced plans to convene the first Global Ministerial Conference on Tuberculosis Control in Moscow in November 2017.1 Furthermore, a high-level United Nations General Assembly meeting dedicated to tuberculosis is scheduled for 2018.1
