Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis (TB) in young children is an indicator of ongoing community transmission. We examined contact investigations related to pediatric TB, yield for source case identifications and genotypes for relevant Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates in a low-incidence setting. METHODS: We reviewed public health data for all patients with TB aged <18 years reported to Montreal authorities during 1996 to...
