Tudor, C., Van der Walt, M., L., Margot, B., Dorman, S., E., Pan, W., K., Y., Yenokyan, G., & Farley, J., E. Clinical Infectious Diseases, 62(suppl 3):S255-S261, Oxford University Press, 5, 2016. Website abstract bibtex Background. Tuberculosis is a known occupational hazard for healthcare workers (HCWs), especially in countries with a high burden of tuberculosis. It is estimated that HCWs have a 2- to 3-fold increased risk of developing tuberculosis compared with the general population. The objective of this study was to identify occupational risk factors for tuberculosis among HCWs in 3 district hospitals with specialized multidrug-resistant tuberculosis wards in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.
