Mistakes
Abstract
This month we look at mistakes, counselling AIDS patients and tuberculosis. The Department of Health is completing a m4jor review of policy that will influence the management of TB significantly. It is our intention to keep you up to date with the developments as they occur. Tuberculosis and AIDS remain two of the biggest challenges facing medicine, the government, and indeed the entire population of South Africa. They are both complex diseases that continue to defeat the science and technology that we are able to apply to the problem. We talk of the TB control programme and not about eradication of this Cinderella problem.
