Interview with Henry M. Blumberg, MD, author of Update on the Treatment of Tuberculosis and Latent Tuberculosis Infection, published in the June 8 issue of JAMA, the Journal of the American Medical Association. Summary Points: 1. Tuberculosis is a public health problem. The responsibility for prescribing an appropriate regimen and assuring that treatment is completed is assigned to the public health program or the treating physician, not the patient. 2. Directly observed therapy is recommended for all patients being treated for active TB, this will necessitate the need for greater collaboration between the treating physician and the public health department. 3. Initial therapy for newly diagnosed patients with tuberculosis consists of a 4-drug regimen including isoniazid, rifampin, pyrazinamide and ethambutol. 4. Testing for latent TB infection should be targeted at those who are at increased risk of progression to active TB. 5. Despite its limitations, the tuberculin skin test remains the most commonly used test for the diagnosis of latent TB infection; newer diagnostic tests for latent TB infection are on the horizon. 6. Active tuberculosis should be excluded before beginning treatment for latent tuberculosis infection. 7. Nine months of isoniazid is the preferred therapy for the treatment of latent TB infection.

This is also a preemptive strike against the competition. The company tells the NYT that there is a fierce battle for AI talent -- acquiring Geometric Intelligence prevents Uber from losing out to Lyft, Google and others hoping to put machine learning to work on the road.
