Tuberculosis notification rates in the elderly.

V H Springett.   

Abstract

The highest rate of tuberculosis notification in England and Wales during the 1980s occurred in males aged 65 years and over. This is explained on the basis of reactivation rather than recent infection: a trend which is likely to continue until the end of the century.
