Headline
Tuberculosis in the WHO European region
Description
To what extent has tuberculosis been controlled? In 1974 there were still 15 to 80 million infectious cases throughout the world, over three-quarters of them in developing countries. One to two million tuberculosis sufferers would die during the year and be replaced by newly infected cases. A further one to two million would be cured over the same period. This disease, cause of so much death and suffering, was being fought with new weapons. The main weapon was BCG vaccination and the second line of attack against tuberculosis was the detection and treatment of cases.
X-ray examination of a patient from the district of Sibiu. The whole population is screened to detect tuberculosis cases.
