'The TB and HIV/AIDS Epidemics in the Russian Federation' describes the socioeconomic conditions in the Russian Federation and examines how they are influencing infectious disease epidemics. It also discusses the impact of the epidemics on the population, including the incidence and prevalence in the general and prison populations. Finally, this paper presents a description of a mathematical model of improvements in health status possible under various TB control strategies, with implications for HIV/AIDS as well.
