Occupational and Environmental Health: Recognizing and Preventing Disease and Injury - Multiple Choice Questions - Learn & Prevent

In controlling tuberculosis in buildings, ventilation and air disinfection techniques are a major concern. This is because tuberculosis is a highly infectious disease that is spread through the air, and proper ventilation and air disinfection can help prevent the spread of the bacteria. The other options may play a role in controlling tuberculosis, but they are not the most significant concern. The cost of HEPA filters may be a concern for some buildings, but proper ventilation and air disinfection can also be achieved through other methods. People's resistance to vaccination may also be a concern, but it is not the primary focus in controlling tuberculosis within buildings. Similarly, while outdoor air quality may affect the overall spread of tuberculosis, it is not the most pressing concern when it comes to controlling it within a building. Therefore, the correct answer is D - ventilation and air disinfection techniques.
