80 000 Tested For TB In Six Wisconsin Counties
Milwaukee area study shows more than 80 000 residents in six counties were tested under the KO TB program of the Wisconsin Anti Tuberculosis Association. C W Kammerer announced the effort aims to speed TB eradication through intensified detection, treatment and prevention. Plans include tuberculin testing and chest X rays in Lincoln and Lafayette counties, and Crawford County testing in January and February next year. Kammerer noted the program provides first reliable data on TB infection levels, estimating about one in seven Wisconsin residents harbor tubercle bacilli. He added higher adult infection in Milwaukee suburbs may affect eradication planning.
