World could face outbreak of 'virtually untreatable' TB after deadly strain is discovered in South Africa

The world could be on the brink of an outbreak of a deadly and ?virtually untreatable? strain of drug resistant tuberculosis unless immediate action is taken, doctors have warned.

The first cases of 'totally drug-resistant' tuberculosis have been found in South Africa, according to a new paper published in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Emerging Infectious Diseases journal.

Clinics across the country ravaged by the bacterial lung infection, have reported an explosion in the number of patients struck down with a virulent strain.
