was having trouble understanding info over phone conversation (really bad reception)..

emailed friend who corrected me by saying that cst's current product can detect tb cases where others on the market can give innaccurate results..

read::
BCG vaccinated people may test positive for the Mantoux skin test, even if they are not latently infected with TB. BCG is a common cause of skin test inaccuracy; the QuantiFERON-TB Gold test is unaffected by BCG vaccination because the specific TB proteins detected by the QuantiFERON-TB Gold test do not occur in the BCG vaccine. Thus, QuantiFERON-TB Gold is highly specific and a positive test result is strongly predictive of true infection with M. tuberculosis.

with continuing pressure from the WHO it must be good news
