Abstract excerpt

SETTING: Israel receives migrants from various countries, some of which have high tuberculosis (TB) prevalence. OBJECTIVE: To assess the predominant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains in Israel isolated during 2008-2010 among Israeli-born and migrant patients, and to investigate possible transmission of TB from migrants to the local population. METHODS: Molecular characterisation employed 43-spacer spoligotyping...
