Language in tuberculosis services

This paer discusses more patient-centred terminology in TB care

Abstract

In this correspondence Baral and Newell welcome a previous call by Zachariah et al. for a move towards more patient-centred terminology in tuberculosis (TB) care, and suggest that the changes proposed do not go far enough. Zachariah et al. respond to this.
