Costa et al.: The First National Anti-TB Drug Resistance Survey in Timor-Leste

2021-06-07

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>BackgroundIn the absence of reliable data, a national drug resistance survey (DRS) was implemented for the first time in Timor-Leste (TL) in 2019 to assess the prevalence of drug resistance among new and previously treated pulmonary TB patients in the country to guide resource allocation and to strengthen existing systems for the diagnosis, treatment and care of rifampicin-resistant (RR...
