Results: A strong correlation was found between knowledge and practice of tuberculosis (r = 0.996, p < 0.05), indicating a significant association. However, the association between knowledge and attitude was weaker (r = 0.160, p < 0.05). The majority had knowledge (61.2 %), a neutral practice (52.2 %) and an acceptable attitude towards TB (85.4 %). Conclusion: These findings suggest the need to strengthen anti-TB strategies, especially in times of pandemic. The inclusion of Watson's humanistic approach can improve the well-being of inmates and the care of patients.
