[Correspondence] Post-migration follow-up of migrants at risk of tuberculosis

In recent Correspondence about the screening and treatment of latent tuberculosis infection in migrants who had moved from countries with a high tuberculosis burden to low-burden countries, Kayvan Bozorgmehr1 reported that asylum seekers in Germany from Somalia and Iraq had very different prevalences of latent infection. He commented that "Many studies on effectiveness of tuberculosis screening treat migrants as homogenous, neglecting that this population is socially constructed and highly heterogeneous", citing our study2 as one of the examples.
