Abstract

TO THE EDITOR: The concurrence of active pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) and influenza in immunocompetent hosts is rarely reported. Such concurrence could distract clinicians from diagnosing TB during an influenza epidemic. We describe 7 cases of concurrent active pulmonary TB and influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus infection in South Korea.
