Heightened Vulnerability to MDR-TB Epidemics after Controlling Drug-Susceptible TB
BACKGROUND: Prior infection with one strain TB has been linked with diminished likelihood of re-infection by a new strain. This paper attempts to determine the role of declining prevalence of drug-susceptible TB in enabling future epidemics of MDR-TB. METHODS: A computer simulation of MDR-TB epidemi...
