AB  - To fight the menace of tuberculosis public-private mix model as being nurtured by 
      Central TB Division and IMA may become an appropriate model for the developing 
      and even for developed countries. IMA had sensitised 12147 private practitioners 
      in five target states in India. Also 592 private practitioners have been trained 
      in District Training Programmes. Frequently asked questions in these 
      sensitisation and District Training Programmes are narrated in this article. The 
      whole of India has been covered under DOTS strategy. Case detection rate of 70% 
      is the key factor for the programme to succeed. CTD is able to reach case 
      detection of new sputum positive (NSP) cases up to 55-60%. IMA is expected to 
      fill the gap to reach magical figures of 70% NSP case detection rate. The risk of 
      active tuberculosis with latent infection is increased 100-fold by HIV infection. 
      Treating HIV and tuberculosis together and initiative of HIV treatment as been 
      elaborated. Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) is characterised 
      by a clinical worsening of a known condition or the appearance of a new condition 
      after initiating antiretroviral therapy (ART). Details about IRIS have been 
      narrated in this article.
