title: [Knowledge of the urban and rural population with regard to tuberculosis].
abstract: Interviewing of the urban and rural population representing Azerbaijan was initiated to obtain data on the community awareness of the ways of tuberculosis infection, its early symptoms, methods of detection and treatment and prevention possibilities. Poor knowledge of all these aspects among certain population groups and a low efficiency of the best part of the health education means were proved. Besides, the people would rather see the doctor to obtain some information than pay attention to those means. Emphasis is made on the necessity to improve health education means and methods.
