Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) used to be a common cause of death in the UK, accounting for a quarter of all annual deaths in the 19th century. While the poor were most vulnerable to the disease, every stratum of society was affected, as witnessed by the suffering of the Brontë sisters and Keats among others. Improved social conditions and better nutrition helped to reduce the prevalence of TB, and the introduction of the BCG vaccine and successful antibiotic therapy reduced the incidence further. Indeed, in the 1970s some thought that there would be no TB at the millennium. However, following a steady decline in recent decades, there are now an increasing number of TB notifications in England and Wales. While most of the rise is accounted for by notifications in the London area, there has also been a significant rise in notifications in the South East and Trent. Three quarters of notifications relate to males, of whom the vast majority are aged 25–64 years. It is perhaps not surprising, therefore, that TB is ranked the fifth most important communicable disease by professionals and the fifth most important disease requiring further work (Horby et al, 2001).

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
