| Popis: | Control of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) transmission in high-income health care settings and in low tuberculosis (TB) prevalence countries remains a public health priority given the constant changes in Mtb epidemiology worldwide. Though Europe is a low prevalence area [1], TB burden among precarious and migrant populations contributes to this evolving landscape, as addressed by the action framework towards TB elimination [2]. At the core of the national health-care system, tertiary care hospitals manage both patients with greater susceptibility to TB, and patients with complex and/or advanced TB disease. Key measures for TB control rely on enabling linkage of cases and identification of transmission chains, often supported by molecular survey tools [3, 4].
