  • Title: Tuberculosis in the eastern European countries and the former USSR.
    Author: Kipp W.
    Journal: Healthc Manage Forum; 2001; 14(2):54-9. PubMed ID: 11414074.
    Abstract:
    This article provides a situational analysis of the increasing trends in the tuberculosis case notification in Eastern Europe and the former USSR. In the Russian Federation, one main reason for the spread of tuberculosis is the insufficient funding of TB control measures which were very costly in the past and which cannot be sustained due to the current economic problems. The author also describes his own experience as technical advisor to a TB control program in western Siberia.
