While most cases of TB can be treated with antibiotics, some strains have developed drug resistance that makes their treatment more expensive, more toxic and less effective for the patient. The IOM Forum on Drug Discovery, Development, and Translation and the Academy of Science of South Africa held a workshop to discuss ways to fight the growing threat of drug-resistant TB."--Publisher's website. 606 $aMultidrug-resistant tuberculosis$xPrevention$zSouth Africa$vCongresses 606 $aTuberculosis$zSouth Africa$vCongresses 606 $aDrug resistance$vCongresses 615 0$aMultidrug-resistant tuberculosis$xPrevention 615 0$aTuberculosis 615 0$aDrug resistance 701 $aClaiborne$b Anne B$01805914 701 $aLebovitz$b Yeonwoo$01807991 701 $aOlson$b Steve$f1956-$0488724 712 02$aInstitute of Medicine (U.S.).$bForum on Drug Discovery, Development, and Translation. 712 02$aAcademy of Science of South Africa. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910972276903321 996 $aThe emerging threat of drug-resistant tuberculosis in southern Africa$94358020 997 $aUNINA
