Summary/Abstract: Tuberculosis represents not only a medical issue but also a social problem. In consequence we wonder what society must do in order to solve this problem that faces us. Technically in medical terms, we have at or disposal treatment protocols proposed by the two recognized medical organizations: OMS and IUATLD. Behind these programs lies the question: “How can these programmers succeed?” At one hand these programmers require money and on the other hand: patient cooperation. Who else can assure harmony between the body and soul better than faith? A missionary activity between TB patients, especially those that come from precarious social environment, could be helpful.
