Figure 3. Potential spatial relationships (residence within 1 km of another patient) between patients with mixed-strain infection and with other genotype-clustered strains, Gaborone, Botswana, 2012–2016. Shown are location of patients with mixed Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection and other genotype-clustered cases in Gaborone. Each color represents each genotype cluster. The 1-km radius blue-shaded area from each mixed infection patient shows the neighborhood boundary. Three patients with mixed infection had potential spatial relationships with 3–6 other patients within the neighborhood.
