The WHO have just released an action framework for TB elimination in low-incidence countries. Tuberculosis elimination requires more than case finding and treatment, but also requires the identification and treatment of latent tuberculosis infection. I'm interested in what people see as some of the challenges in various cultural settings as TB elimination is balanced with the protection and promotion of human rights, ethics and equity.

As Ishag, I also think one of the challenges is diabetes and HIV, but I think that also TB in prisons, in homeless people as well in indigenous people (aborigins).
