“Tuberculosis is the biggest infectious disease killer in the world today, taking the lives of around 4400 people every day”.

I thought HIV was killing more than that. I’ll check.

HIV currently kills almost a million people per year.”

4400 people a day is 1.6 million a year. They’re right, TV is killing more people than HIV/AIDS.

The best source for this sort of information I know is the WHO mortality database.

Can you look it up, please. How does this compare with other communicable diseases ?
