Abstract excerpt

Background: Understanding regional molecular epidemiology allows for the development of more efficient tuberculosis prevention strategies in low-incidence settings. Methods: We analyzed 24-locus mycobacterial interspersed repetitive-unit-variable-number tandem repeat (MIRU-VNTR) genotyping for 2290 Mycobacterium tuberculosis clinical isolates collected in the province of British Columbia (BC), Canada, in...
