Title | Prisons as Reservoir for Community Transmission of Tuberculosis, Brazil | pt_BR |
Type | Article | |
Abstract | We conducted a population-based study of tuberculosis
(TB) cases in Dourados, Brazil, to assess the relationship
between incarceration and TB in the general population. Incarceration
was associated with TB in an urban population;
54% of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains were related to
strains from persons in prisons. TB control in prisons is critical
for reducing disease prevalence. | pt_BR |
