Tuberculosis
TB and HIV coinfection is very common globally. TB is less commonly seen in the United States. But it can provide a challenge in areas and communities where latent and active infection are seen. HRSA and the CDC have developed guidelines and training tools for clinicians tackling TB in the context of HIV infection.
