Convergence of risk factors
Homelessness TB patients in London
• 2 x risk of being highly infectious– aOR 1.8, 95% CI 1.4-2.4
• 3 x risk of having MDR TB– aOR 2.9, 95% CI 1.6-5.2
• 10 x risk of non-adherence– aOR 10.2, 95% CI 7.9-13.2

Active Case Finding
• Aim: Improve early case detection and outcomes
• Multiple options – Accessible – Acceptable - Accurate
