 Screening
and targeted testing is a key
strategy for controlling and preventing
infection on college and university campuses.
 Early
detection provides an opportunity to
promote the health of affected individuals
through prompt diagnosis and treatment and
prevents the spread of disease

What is TB?
Tuberculosis (TB) is a disease caused by
germs that are spread from person to
person through the air.
 TB usually affects the lungs, but it can also
affect other parts of the body, such as the
brain, the kidneys, or the spine.
 A person with active TB can die if they do
not get treatment.


Does a positive test mean I have the
disease?
 International
Students are required to
complete a question and answer screening
form.
 Only
those students with identifiable risk
factors for latent tuberculosis infection
and/or TB disease should be tested
 One
of the identifiable risk factors is where
you are from and where you have traveled to
in the last five years.
 Skin
Test is free of charge
 (blood
test)IGRA is approximately $50 –
increased sensitivity and specificity
 Either
test is positive – chest x-ray is
required – Chest x-rays are available for
student at ValleyCare in Pleasanton for
$66.10
 Chest
x-ray = negative
 Referred
for an INH consultation – 7 month
course of medication is offered to prevent
the disease from becoming active – you will
be referred to your primary care provider.
 If
the chest-x-ray = positive
 you
will be referred for medical treatment
 If
you have had a positive skin test in the
past – please let your provider know ~ you
will receive a chest x-ray instead of a skin
test.
I
look forward to seeing you in the Health
