By the mid-1980s the schools' BCG vaccination programme will be uneconomic. It is estimated that it will cost about pounds5500 to prevent one case of tuberculosis, the average total cost of which would be between pounds400 and pounds1300 depending on medical policy about the degree of illness for which hospital admission is necessary. In December 1975 the costs of the BCG programme were greater than its monetary benefits, probably by a factor of about 2.
到20世纪80年代中期,学校的卡介苗接种计划将变得不经济。据估计,预防一例结核病的成本约为5500英镑,根据关于因疾病严重程度而需住院治疗的医疗政策,其平均总成本在400英镑至1300英镑之间。1975年12月,卡介苗接种计划的成本高于其货币收益,可能相差约2倍。
