TL;DR: If current trends in tuberculosis incidence continue, few countries are likely to meet the SDG target to end the tuberculosis epidemic by 2030, and several regions had higher rates of age-standardised incidence and mortality than expected on the basis of their SDI levels in 2016.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used historical data on gross domestic product (GDP) and health spending for 188 countries from 1995 to 2015, and projected annual GDP, development assistance for health, and government, out-of-pocket, and prepaid private health spending from 2015 through to 2040 as a reference scenario.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed improved estimates of health spending by source, including development assistance for health, and for the first time, estimated HIV/AIDS spending on prevention and treatment and by source of funding, for 188 countries.
