| Abstract |
This progress report on the work undertaken by a working group on tuberculosis set up in France in April 1991 outlines recommendations for the control of the risk of tuberculosis transmission in the health-care sector, in particular in hospitals. The data collected and the recommendations apply both to patients and health-care personnel, thus providing an insight into the prevention of this disease in health-care settings in general. |
