Abstract

The prevalence of TB among PWID is very high, ranging from 1.6% to5.7%. PWID are 30 to 100 times more at risk of active TB than thegeneral population.Interestingly, the TB burden is very similar between HIV-positive andHIV negative PWID.n this cross sectional study, we showed that community-basedscreening was feasible and highly effective to identify TB cases inthis hard-to-reach population
