Abstract excerpt

Tuberculosis microepidemics are considered as such when a proven epidemiological link is identified between the cases. However, some studies have found microepidemics that were not supported by genotyping data. In a cross-sectional study, 44 linked pairs from 33 microepidemics identified during a 5-year period in Madrid, Spain were analysed to evaluate whether the epidemiological findings were consistent with the...
