The purpose of the Tuberculosis Control and Prevention Program is to control, prevent,and eventually eliminate tuberculosis (TB) from the Commonwealth of Virginia.  The program does this through a variety of strategies aimed at detecting every case of TB that occurs in Virginia, assuring that every case is adequately and completely treated, and preventing additional transmission of the disease in communities.

The TB Control and Prevention Program provides services to local health districts, health professionals in the private sector, laboratories and individuals impacted by TB.
