To understand utility of testing, we determined prevalence and risk factors for tuberculosis infection and tuberculosis preventive therapy eligibility among HHCs.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>In a cross-sectional study conducted from July 2021 to September 2022 in Lesotho, South Africa, and Tanzania, we enrolled people with microbiologically confirmed pulmonary tuberculosis and their HHCs. HHCs were screened and tested for tuberculosis and tuberculosis infection using Xpert Ultra and QuantiFERON-TB-Gold-Plus, respectively. Generalized linear modelling was used to determine factors associated with tuberculosis infection, using robust standard errors. Tuberculosis preventive therapy eligibility was determined using World Health Organization criteria.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>We enrolled 342 people with pulmonary tuberculosis and 964 HHCs: 61.9% (597\/964) were female with a median age of 18 years (interquartile range, 8\u201339 years). Overall, tuberculosis prevalence was 3.4% (25\/739; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.2%\u20134.9%), while tuberculosis infection prevalence was 48.7% (348\/714; 95% CI, 45.0%\u201352.5%). Having tuberculosis infection increased with age per year (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 1.02; 95% CI, 1.01\u20131.03), being from Lesotho (aOR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.04\u20133.20), previous tuberculosis history (aOR, 2.25; 95% CI, 1.05\u20134.79), and being HIV negative (aOR, 2.30; 95% CI, 1.31\u20134.04). Overall, 62.2% (518\/833; 95% CI, 58.8%\u201365.5%) were eligible for tuberculosis preventive therapy.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Almost half of tuberculosis-exposed HHCs aged \u22655 years had tuberculosis infection. Approximately two-thirds of HHCs were eligible for tuberculosis preventive therapy, implying that providing tuberculosis preventive therapy without prior testing for tuberculosis infection may be warranted in this population.
