Zoonotic tuberculosis in India: looking beyond <i>Mycobacterium bovis</i>

2019-11-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Zoonotic tuberculosis (zTB) is the transmission of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) subspecies from animals to humans. zTB is generally quantified by determining the proportion of human isolates that are Mycobacterium bovis . Although India has the world’s largest number of human TB cases and the largest cattle population, where bovine TB is endemic, the burden of zTB is unknown. <...
