Abstract
The most imported evaluation criterion of spreading the tuberculosis is an index of the population’s infection by the tuberculosis mycobacteriums. The index of infection characterizes a reservoir volume of the tuberculosis infection and thereby a probability of initiation of the new cases of sickness. The maximum infected in favorable for epidemiological relation regions are among adults. And vice versa, a displacement to the age of children and teenagers gives the tuberculosis trouble. In condition of mass BCG vaccination the index everywhere is not calculated because the positive tuberculin probes appear in the infection and post vaccination immunity.
