Global Tuberculosis Control

This WHO annual report tracks how tuberculosis control is advancing worldwide, with particular attention to DOTS, the strategy that health bodies recommend internationally for fighting TB. Its statistical tables give country-by-country updates for most WHO member states and other territories, and the text is available in English, French and Spanish.

The report's review of planning efforts now includes, for the first time, an evaluation of joint TB and HIV programmes in many countries. It also describes the measures being taken to address drug-resistant TB. The volume has no subject index.
