Fitness of drug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis and the impact on the transmission among household contacts
There has been an on-going debate on whether the development of drug resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis reduces its relative fitness and its ability to cause disease. The aim of this study was to explore this relationship. For this purpose, we evaluated the in vitro growth of clinical isolates...
