First Meeting of the Global TB/HIV Working Group

HIV-related disease is caused by high-grade pathogens, e.g. pneumococcus, non-typhoid salmonellae and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) at any stage, and by low-grade pathogens (e.g. candida, Cryptococcus neoformans, toxoplasma, Pneumocystis carinii and atypical mycobacteria) with advanced immunosuppression. ................
