<strong>Guidelines</strong> on the Prevention and Control of Tuberculosis in Ireland 2010HSE/HPSC11.3 InformationEven as we see the deterioration of the general level of TB knowledge amongst our healthcare workers,it is important that we address this trend through specific information and research centred events. Thisdocument will help this process, however, it should be supported with publications and articles in themedical journals and medical literature as well. A formal annual TB meeting might serve as a focus pointfor this activity. Where possible, members of this committee should be available to provide a balanced andinformed view of the disease when called upon by television, radio and/or public newspapers.-133-
