Abstract
Education through radio, television, pamphlets, and newspapers, and cinema slides about the danger of infection is very essential. The disease flourishes in poverty and squalor. Financial and medical help needed by poor and under-nourished persons can be extended through T. B. Association and Social Security Insurance. Tuberculosis clinic should be opened in every Tehsil so that population be treated and BCG. vaccinated at their door. Although the bed rest and fresh air are necessary, hospital treatment for the highly toxic and infectious patients ensures proper supervision of chemo-therapy in the vital early months. BCG vaccination is suggested to new born and children upto 10-15 years of age. Attention should also be focused on mass miniature radiography and rehabilitation of cured patients.
