Melioidosis in India: Deadly Infection Often Undetected in Hospitals
A multicentre study in India revealed that nearly 1 in 11 high-risk hospitalized adults had melioidosis, a potentially deadly infection. The study found that almost 20% of confirmed patients died in hospital. Due to gaps in diagnosis and lack of national surveillance, the true burden of melioidosis in India remains uncertain.
