Implementation of whole genome sequencing for tuberculosis diagnostics in a low-middle income, high MDR-TB burden country

Abstract Whole genome sequencing (WGS) is revolutionary for diagnostics of TB and its mutations associated with drug-resistances, but its uptake in low- and middle-income countries is hindered by concerns of implementation feasibility. Here, we provide a proof of concept for its successful implement...
