[Tuberculosis in the Ural and Volgo-Vyatka regions and means for optimizing antituberculosis activity]
Abstract:
Analysis of certain parameters has demonstrated that situation for tuberculosis in the Ural and Volgo-Vyatsky region for the period of 1986-1990 remains unsteady. The epidemiologic and economic conditions of today dictate the necessity to improve the effectiveness of tuberculosis control by strictly differentiating the available antituberculosis measures, their volume and frequency of use, depending on the risk of disease contraction in each particular territory in the whole population and in separate groups taking technical, material and personnel potentialities into consideration.
