摘要
The development of molecular typing techniques during the last decade has led to remarkable improvements in epidemiological studies of tuberculosis (TB) and other infectious disease. In this paper, the burden of TB disease, current issues about disease control in developed countries including Australia and the contribution of molecular typing to improved understanding of TB epidemiology are reviewed.
