Transmission models of Mycobacterium ulcerans: A systematic review.

Transmission models of Mycobacterium ulcerans: A systematic review.

<h4>Background</h4>Buruli ulcer, caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans, is a neglected tropical disease affecting 33 countries worldwide. Elucidating the full transmission pathways of this infection remains an important active field of investigation, especially in Central and West Africa and...
