In addition to the immigrants from Ethiopia who arrived in Israel during the period 1980-90, a particularly large number immigrated in 1991 including a concentrated group (Operation Solomon). The procedures and problems involved in tuberculosis case-finding and treatment in Ethiopia and in Israel are described. The prevalence rate of cases of active tuberculosis in those who immigrated in 1991 was 1.3/100 persons as compared with 1.9/100 in the 1984-85 immigration (Operation Moses). Among the 1991 immigrants the number of cases reported was 261. In 89% the site was pulmonary. After screening and treatment in Israel there were very few cases of relapse or death and few contact cases in the host population. Follow-up of case reporting from 1983 is updated and demonstrates that the majority of cases are detected and treated within 2-3 years of immigration. Since 1980, 771 cases of tuberculosis were reported in all immigrants from Ethiopia.
除了1980年至1990年期间抵达以色列的埃塞俄比亚移民外,1991年有特别多的人移民到以色列,其中包括一个集中的群体(所罗门行动)。本文描述了埃塞俄比亚和以色列在结核病病例发现及治疗方面所涉及的程序和问题。1991年移民中的活动性结核病例患病率为1.3/100人,而1984 - 1985年移民(摩西行动)中的患病率为1.9/100人。在1991年的移民中,报告的病例数为261例。其中89%的病灶位于肺部。在以色列进行筛查和治疗后,复发或死亡的病例极少,宿主人群中的接触病例也很少。更新了自1983年以来病例报告的随访情况,结果表明大多数病例在移民后的2至3年内被发现并得到治疗。自1980年以来,埃塞俄比亚所有移民中共报告了771例结核病病例。
