This resource explains the biology of tuberculosis and the way in which we deal with it.
Tuberculosis is one of the oldest diseases of humans.
The latest edition of the Canadian Tuberculosis Standards and the Normes canadiennes pour la lutte antituberculeuse is available for viewing. These are both in read only PDF format. You will be able to purchase a PDF version that you can print or a hardcopy, coil bound version from this site later this year. Consult the patient's guide to prescription drugs for lung diseases. Tuberculosis has continued to thrive in developing countries of the world and has seen a resurgence in more developed countries since the 1980s.
