Differences in Contributing Factors to Tuberculosis Incidence in U.S.-born and Foreign-born Persons

1 Dec 1998

Abstract excerpt

To determine the factors contributing to tuberculosis incidence in the U.S.-born and foreign-born populations in San Francisco, California, and to assess the effectiveness of tuberculosis control efforts in these populations, we performed a population-based molecular epidemiologic study using 367 patients with strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis recently introduced into the city. IS6110-based and PGRS-based...
