Among the steps the article discusses in Estonia's efforts to limit the disease are isolation, banning the sale of TB drugs from pharmacies to prevent the spread of resistant strains, integrating drug treatment with TB screening efforts, and use of such equipment as GeneXpert to diagnosis if the strain of drug is regular or resistant.
