Does Cross-Border Transmission Contribute to the Development of Drug Resistance in Tuberculosis (TB) in Southern Africa?

This project investigated the transmission of drug-resistant tuberculosis between Botswana and Namibia using whole-genome sequencing. By analyzing genomic data from over 300 bacterial isolates, we identified clear evidence of cross-border transmission events involving multidrug-resistant strains. The key biological finding is that while drug resistance has emerged multiple times independently (polyphyletic), it is also potentially spread through cross-border chains.
