To determine the correct air/fuel mixture and the correct ignition timing, the PCM must know the atmospheric (BARO) pressure. If the PCM is to compensate for changes in altitude or weather, it must have an input signal that reflects these changes in atmospheric pressure.
Although DOTS has vastly improved the TB problem in Indonesia, the program needs to be effectively implemented in the eastern regions of Indonesia and Sumatra and needs to focus on fighting MDR TB and the TB/HIV co-infection problem.
Tuberculosis (or TB) is a contagious infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Most often it infects the lungs, but it can also attack other parts of the body, such as the spine, kidneys and brain. Tuberculosis has two stages, TB infection and TB disease: Someone infected with TB who doesn't have TB disease can't spread the bacteria to others, but should be treated to prevent the development of the disease. The BCG vaccine is effective in protecting children against serious TB disease, but studies show that it provides protection for up to 15 years.
