Patients with active tuberculosis who are noncompliant with their prescribed medical treatment program pose a serious hazard to others as well as to themselves. If directly observed therapy cannot be implemented, involuntary confinement of such patients is ethically justified in both secular and Jewish law. This discussion of the Jewish view on this issue is drawn from classical, biblical, talmudic, and rabbinic sources.
患有活动性肺结核却不遵守规定治疗方案的患者，不仅对自身，也对他人构成严重危害。如果无法实施直接观察治疗，在世俗法律和犹太法律中，对这类患者进行非自愿隔离在伦理上都是合理的。关于犹太教对此问题的观点的讨论取材于经典、圣经、塔木德经和拉比文献。
