Description

The goal of this addendum is to help management and staff 
minimize the risk of TB transmission at facilities in resource limited settings in which a.) HIV-infected persons receive diagnosis, care, treatment, 
and/or support, and b.) there is a high prevalence of HIV infection, both known 
and undiagnosed, in settings such as prisons, jails, other 
detention centers, and drug rehabilitation centers.
