Science Friday (the 13th): TDR-TB

Maryn McKenna (@marynmck) of Superbug fame will be on Science Friday (Hour 1: 2-3pm ET) tomorrow to discuss Totally Drug-Resistant TB.  She has had some very informative posts recently on the topic, including discussion of the two earliest known patients in Italy who died in 2003.  She also reports on the latest twelve TDR-TB cases in a single Indian hospital and points us to an ahead-of-print letter in CID posted in December that discusses the diagnosis and care of the first four of these patients in India.  Turn on, tune in...
