Abstract:
A 9-year survey on tuberculosis control at Sololo General Hospital (Marsabit District) is presented. 700 patients were treated and followed up from 1982 to 1990. The paper deals with the major constraints of TB control in a nomadic population on the borderland with Ethiopia; it highlights the need of the short course regimen and the TB manyatta programme to increase the percentage of cured patients.
