Abstract: Abstract Risk factors of MDR-TB remain unclear in South Korea, despite being an important public health issue. Findings from this study, which included 50,000 patients with TB from South Korea, suggests that immigrants and patients with lower income levels were strong predictors of MDR-TB in a high-income, high TB incidence country.
