[Course of a specific process in high risk ecological areas].
In the past 5 years, the epidemiological situation associated with tuberculosis has greatly aggravated in the high ecological risk areas (the towns of Engels and Volsk) of the Saratov region. Morbidity has increased from 40 to 48 per 100,000 persons (to 79 in Engles). The proportion of destructive and acutely progressive types of pulmonary tuberculosis and the number of those died from tuberculosis among the followed up at the tuberculosis dispensary are on the increase.
