A direct measurement tool for M. tuberculosis infection in humans is currently unavailable. The vast majority of infected persons have no signs or symptoms of TB but are at risk for developing activetuberculosis (TB) disease. This can be averted by preventive treatment. These Guidelines on the management of latent tuberculosis infection were developed in accordanceto the requirements and recommended p 606 $aTuberculosis -- Patients -- Treatment 606 $aTuberculosis -- Prevention 606 $aTuberculosis -- Treatment 608 $aElectronic books. 615 4$aTuberculosis -- Patients -- Treatment. 615 4$aTuberculosis -- Prevention. 615 4$aTuberculosis -- Treatment. 676 $a616.109236 712 02$aWorld Health Organization. 712 02$aWorld Health Organization. 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459728203321 996 $aGuidelines on the Management of Latent Tuberculosis Infection$92452308 997 $aUNINA
