Worst TB outbreak since 1999 reported in Nunavut locales / Gabriel Zárate.
Title: | Worst TB outbreak since 1999 reported in Nunavut locales / Gabriel Zárate. |
Author(s): | Zárate, Gabriel. |
Date: | 2010. |
In: | Nunatsiaq News. (2010.), Vol. 38(27) (2010) |
Abstract: | Reports Nunavut's worst single tuberculosis outbreak since territory's creation, with 81 cases diagnosed (mostly in Iqaluit and Cape Dorset). Notes that most new cases involve young people between ages of 15 and 24, and that patients of this age are more likely to postpone seeking advice from health centres if they feel ill (thus putting those around them at risk of infection) |
Notes: | Nunatsiaq News. Vol. 38(27) :3 (2010). |
