Tuberculosis and Malaria are among the leading causes of infectious disease-related deaths worldwide. Plasmodium falciparum is almost always responsible for the most severe cases of malaria, leading to multi organ failure and higher mortality rates among the plasmodium species. India has the highest burden of TB in the world, an estimated 2 million cases annually, and accounting for approximately one fifth of the global incidence. Despite the availability of effective treatment for most cases, tuberculosis is still a cause of death in our environment; as in some cases, the diagnosis of tuberculosis may not be established until after the patient had died and an autopsy has been performed.
