“…In the past few years, many studies have focused on this topic (Austin and Anderson, 1999;Blower and Volberding, 2002;Blower and Chou, 2004;Blower and Gerberding, 1998;Blower et al, 2005;Ferguson et al, 2003;Hayden, 2001;Hayden, 2006;Levin et al, 1999;Levin et al, 2004;Longini Jr. et al, 2005;Moscona, 2005;Regoes and Bonhoeffer, 2006;Sánchez et al, 2005;Stilianakis et al, 1998). Some of these studies investigated drug resistance in tuberculosis (Blower and Chou, 2004;Blower and Gerberding, 1998), some in HIV (Blower and Volberding, 2002;Blower et al, 2005;Sánchez et al, 2005), and some in HSV-2 . In addition, there have been studies on the development of drug resistance during influenza epidemics (Ferguson et al, 2003;Hayden, 2001;Hayden, 2006;Longini Jr. et al, 2005;Moscona, 2005;Regoes and Bonhoeffer, 2006;Stilianakis et al, 1998).…”
