Non-tuberculous mycobacteria have diverse effects on BCG efficacy against Mycobacterium tuberculosis
The efficacy of Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccination in protection against pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is highly variable between populations. One possible explanation for this variability is increased exposure of certain populations to non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM). This study used a mur...
