Abstract

A routine laboratory test like complete blood count is a common practise during any hospital visit. It doesn’t provoke social stigma, especially when diagnosis of infectious diseases like tuberculosis and Human immuno de ciency virus (HIV) infection are to be done. Thus if tested for its potential to diagnose or screen tuberculosis co-infection among people living with HIV, it will serve as a valuable laboratory evidence to start treatment in such vulnerable population. We hereby address the plausibility of using haematological parameters as screening tools to identify TB among PLHIV
