The host genetics of typhoid fever in Vietnam

2007-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Typhoid fever is a systemic infection caused by the bacterium <i>Salmonella enterica</i> serovar Typhi. It remains a major public health problem throughout the developing world with over 22 million people infected each year. The emergence of resistance to chloramphenicol and other antimicrobials has been a major setback and we now face the very real prospect that untreatable typhoid fever will emerge. Understandin...
