  • Title: [How is it with tuberculosis in the world?].
    Author: Murray JF.
    Journal: Bull Acad Natl Med; 1999; 183(7):15-22; discussion 23. PubMed ID: 10622119.
    Abstract:
    Tuberculosis is well entrenched in the world and the number of cases is projected to continue to rise, especially in low-income countries. Eradication of the disease will be difficult in poor countries where, for the most part, the population is increasing, HIV infection is spreading, and control measures are inadequate or lacking. The problem is worsened by the increasing prevalence in many countries of strains of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
