Abstract

This research focuses on the prevalence and epidemiology of tuberculosis among migrant populations in Thailand. Using health records and surveys, the study assesses risk factors and transmission patterns. The findings indicate higher TB rates among migrants compared to the local population, emphasizing the need for tailored public health interventions and improved access to healthcare services for these communities. The study calls for comprehensive strategies to control TB spread and support affected individuals.
