• In NFHS-3, information on persons in the household with TB comes from the household respondent
• Information on TB awareness, misconceptions, and stigma comes from the women’s and men’s questionnaires
• Prevalence of TB, primarily of medically treated (which is a more reliable measure of TB in the population)

Per 100,000 persons
NFHS-3 demonstrates that use of solid fuels increases the TB level; the lowest prevalence is in households using clean fuels such as gas/electricity
Misconceptions about TB transmission are still high, suggesting the need for awareness campaigns
Programmes need to address higher prevalence groups such as older persons, persons in rural areas, and persons in the east and northeastern parts of India
NFHS-3, 2005-06
Tobacco and alcohol are important risk factors for morbidity and mortality among adults
Studies associate alcohol use with accidents/injuries and violence against women
Tobacco and alcohol use by women, especially during pregnancy, is a matter of concern since it entails serious reproductive risks
NFHS-3, 2005-06
• Tobacco use is only 11 percent among women, but nearly 1 in 10 pregnant and breastfeeding women also use tobacco
• Among women who smoke, over 9 in 10 smoked at least one cigarette/bidi in the past 24 hours
