Epidemiology of Primary Multidrug-Resistant Tuberculosis, Vladimir Region, Russia

We studied the epidemiology of drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) in Vladimir Region, Russia, in 2012. Most cases of multidrug-resistant TB (MDR TB) were caused by transmission of drug-resistant strains, and >33% were in patients referred for testing after mass radiographic screening. Early diagnos...

Early diagnosis of drug resistance is essential for preventing transmission of MDR TB.
