It reviews responses to resurgent TB and proposed strategies for its elimination in the US and worldwide; provides an overview of TB transmission, infection, and disease; discusses established and proposed federal standards to protect workers from occupational exposure to TB; and considers the effects of existing guidelines for preventing TB exposure in health-care facilities as well as the likely effects of standards proposed by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
