Introducing risk inequality metrics in tuberculosis policy development

Failure to account for heterogeneity in TB risk can mislead model-based evaluation of proposed interventions. Here, the authors introduce a metric to estimate the distribution of risk in populations from routinely collected data and find that variation in infection acquisition is the most impactful.

Global tuberculosis control: lessons learnt and future prospects

The public health community worldwide has struggled with tuberculosis (TB) control for many years. Here, Christian Leinhardt and colleagues review the evolution of global TB control policies, including the Stop TB Strategy, and discuss the challenges and obstacles associated with control of this ancient disease.
