Abstract excerpt

Drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) is major problem in the fight against TB. Multidrug resistant (MDR) TB patients have a reduced treatment success rates and for, extensively drug-resistant (XDR) TB the cure rate does not exceed 25% in many countries. To evaluate the pre-XDR-TB and XDR-TB prevalence and transmission in Rio Grande do Sul State, in southern Brazil, we performed a retrospective WGS-based analysis...
