En este artículo se plantea nuevamente el tema de la factibilidad de lograr el objetivo de eliminación de la Tuberculosis y él, en cierto modo es la continuación de otro artículo presentado hace tres años en esta revista por el mismo autor. El análisis se centra ahora, principalmente, en la revisión de los obstáculos que se han debido superar para proseguir los esfuerzos destinados a alcanzar la meta llamada de eliminación avanzada, tasa de incidencia de 10 x 100.000, para el año 2010, previa consideración de las dificultades concretas encontradas una vez superado el umbral de eliminación. Se hacen presente las líneas de trabajo técnico del programa para los años que siguen y se insiste en que lo principal es que se mantenga la voluntad política de apoyar el Programa de TBC y que los Directores de los Servicios de Salud asuman la responsabilidad central que les corresponde en la consecución de la meta 2010 que es un Objetivo Sanitario del Ministerio.
