An outbreak of multidrug-resistant (MDR) tuberculosis (TB) involved 13 persons in four households in a low-income, under-resourced urban Kansas community during November 2021-November 2022. A majority of the seven adults identified in the Kansas outbreak were born outside the United States in a country that had experienced an MDR TB outbreak with the same genotype during 2007-2009, whereas most of the six children in the Kansas outbreak were U.S.-born. Prompt identification, evaluation, and treatment of persons with MDR TB and their contacts is essential to limiting transmission.
2021 年 11 月至 2022 年 11 月,堪萨斯州一个低收入、资源匮乏的城市社区的四个家庭中爆发了涉及 13 人的耐多药结核病 (TB)。堪萨斯州疫情中确定的七名成年人多数出生在美国境外,他们出生的国家曾在 2007 年至 2009 年爆发过同样基因型的耐多药结核病,而堪萨斯州疫情中的六名儿童均为美国出生。及时发现、评估和治疗耐多药结核病患者及其接触者对于限制传播至关重要。
