Sterilization of granulomas is common in both active and latent tuberculosis despite extensive within-host variability in bacterial killing
Over 30% of the world’s population is infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), yet only ~5–10% will develop clinical disease(1). Despite considerable effort, we understand little about what distinguishes individuals who progress to active tuberculosis (TB) from those who remain latent for dec...
