<s>[INST] What is the impact of TB/HIV on women? [/INST] Worldwide, women bear a disproportionate burden of poverty, ill-health, malnutrition and
disease. TB causes more deaths among women than all causes of maternal mortality
combined, and more than 900 million women are infected with TB worldwide. In 2006, 1
million women will die and 2.5 million will become sick from the disease, mainly women
between the ages of 15 and 44.
Once infected with TB, women of reproductive age are more susceptible to developing
TB disease than men of the same age. Women in this age group are also at greater risk
of becoming infected with HIV. As a result, in certain regions, young women aged 15–24
with TB outnumber young men of the same age with the disease.  Source: UNAIDS. Link: https://data.unaids.org/pub/factsheet/2006/tb_hiv_qa.pdf. Field: Lung Disease. Disease: Tuberculosis </s>
