New paper (Gandhi): Casual Contact in Drug-Resistant TB Transmission
paper
New paper led by Neel Gandhi in the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine: Role of Casual Contact in Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis Transmission: A Molecular Epidemiology Study. Using whole-genome sequencing of second-line drug-resistant TB in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, casual contact in community locations accounted for roughly half of transmission among genotypic clusters.
