The British Government will be extending the TB testing requirements to those applying for visa entry from a further 6 countries: China, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Philippines, South Africa and Zimbabwe. We will tell you when TB screening is due to start in these countries as soon as we are able to.

why test people only who are coming for 6 months or more, probably the problems and delays it would cause if they asked everyone who came to the UK for a TB cert or to do an x-ray at the airport

also my misses tells me, it can take 6 months to treat TB, so if your here for less than 6 months, why bother and also the problems it would cause for the NHS. so for those coming for 6 months or more is where the gov has set the marker, and also if your here for 6 months or more, your probably here on a visa leading to settlement , so it would be a good idea to test those and treat them
