Urgent Implementation in a Hospital Setting of a Strategy To Rule Out Secondary Cases Caused by Imported Extensively Drug-Resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains at Diagnosis

Current migratory movements require new strategies for rapidly tracking the transmission of high-risk imported Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) enables us to identify single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and therefore design PCRs to track specific relevant strains....
