To ensure that scientific research of immediate concern is shared as rapidly as possible, The Union is fast-tracking accepted articles from the IJTLD and PHA and publishing them as edited preprints on our website, prior to publication in a journal.
Individuals and institutes can subscribe to the IJTLD online or in print – simply email us at subscription@theunion.org for details. Find out more about the IJTLD.
Originally available as a preprint, this article was subsequently published in the July 2020 issue of the IJTLD. Read the article here.
