Pak J Chest Med Jan ;10(2):15-7.

Tuberculosis is a curable disease, however the ability of medical & public health interventions to control TB, particularly in developing countries, is often doubted. TB has been neglected as Public health issue for many years and remains the major cause of death from a single infectious agent among adults. TB morbidity and mortality continues to rise because of deterioration of Public health system, the incidence of TB in Pakistan was 234/100,000 in 1995, and has been estimated to rise to 269/100,000 by the year 2005. This is a review article.
