The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV, the virus that causes AIDS) is the strongest risk factor for tuberculosis among adults. The HIV epidemic will increase tuberculosis cases in India. If HIV spreads more rapidly, tuberculosis may become uncontrollable for at least a generation. Unless tuberculosis control services are rapidly strengthened, HIV could fuel a doubling or even tripling of tuberculosis cases.
