Nosocomial transmission of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis among HIV-infected persons--Florida and New York, 1988-1991.

.   

Abstract

During 1990 and 1991, outbreaks of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) in four hospitals (one in Miami and three in New York City) were investigated by CDC in collaboration with the reporting hospitals and state and local health departments. This report summarizes preliminary findings of the investigations and recommendations for prevention and control of MDR-TB outbreaks.
