In the Soviet literature on tbc, especially in recent years, there has been an extensive discussion of the clinical features of the course of tbc in the countryside. The indisputable position is that TB infection of the rural population has been widespread in the distant past. This is confirmed by old surveys of the rural population of the 1990s, by the large number of TB infections found in remote areas of the Union during expeditionary surveys, and by the experience and observations of all doctors who have lived and worked in rural areas for a long time.
