Trans R Soc Trop Med Hyg 94:603-7. 2000..Despite a high risk of infection, with a moderate proportion of background drug-resistant strains (11% SDR, 6% MDR), reinfection is not a common cause of treatment failure or drug resistance at 6 months...- HIV-1 and recurrence, relapse, and reinfection of tuberculosis after cure: a cohort study in South African mineworkersP Sonnenberg
