    AbstractThe effective laws impose the duty upon TB patients or persons suspected to have TB as well as their close relations to undergo compulsory sanitary, epidemiological and examinations. Furthermore, treatment is also mandatory and in case of infecting patients hospitalization, isolation and treatment. Duty does not denote enforcement required in certain particularly dangerous infectious diseases. Poland operates a system of mandatory TB vaccination applicable, today, only to infants. Persons suspected of TB have the obligation to provide necessary information helping in diagnosing the disease or helping to find the source of infection and transmission of the disease. TB patients are under obligation to discontinue performing their work in case it may prevent the disease from spreading onto other persons.
