AbstractThe results of an analysis on new cases of pulmonary tuberculosis from contacts with sputum positive tuberculosis are discussed. In subjects with contacts with sputum positive tuberculosis the incidence rates were 16 fold higher in comparison with the general population. In patients that reported contacts with sputum negative tuberculosis the incidence rates were even higher. This contradiction can be explained by the quicker hospitalization in the first group of patients thus terminating contacts.
