Active TB case finding with linkage to preventive therapy (ACF/TPT)
ACF/TPT in both intervention arms will consist of TB screening by mobile chest X-ray (with artificial intelligence-based reading, followed by confirmatory sputum testing with Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra for participants with abnormal x-rays), and linkage to preventive therapy for those who are TB-negative and eligible for TPT (limited in April 2024 to those with close TB contact or known HIV infection).
