Introduction
The aim of this study was to explore the effectiveness of BCG vaccination on the severity of clinical symptoms of pulmonary tuberculosis symptoms (PTb) in patients from the northwest and west of Iran.Results
Of the subjects included in this study, 264 cases (73.7%) had no BCG vaccination scar. Comparison of the severity of clinical symptoms of PTb in patients with BCG vaccine history to those lacking vaccination history revealed lower symptom severity in patients who had been vaccinated (vaccine effectiveness = 95.5%; p < 0.00001).
