Determinants of tuberculosis in the prison population in Catalonia

2.3% had or had previously had tuberculosis. Therefore, it is essential to carry out tuberculosis screening upon admission to detect new cases or exacerbations and prevent TB transmission in an enclosed environment. Previous tuberculosis was more common in older adults, Asians, and those without shelter or housing; such groups require special follow-up.

Abstract

2.3% had or had previously had tuberculosis. Therefore, it is essential to carry out tuberculosis screening upon admission to detect new cases or exacerbations and prevent TB transmission in an enclosed environment. Previous tuberculosis was more common in older adults, Asians, and those without shelter or housing; such groups require special follow-up.
