Abstract

A necessarily restricted survey of the campaign against tuberculosis in Scotland has been given. It can at least be said that we know a great deal more about the problem of tuberculosis than was possible before the inauguration of official schemes. Due emphasis has been placed upon the importance of preserving a critical outlook upon all activities engaged in the campaign, if we would preserve that degree of efficiency which is requisite for the fulfilment of our ambition to write off tuberculosis from our morbidity and mortality statistics. In greater measure perhaps than in most medical problems there are in the campaign intense environmental (patient, physician, social, etc.) factors requiring first-class-team work for their solution.
