In a longitudinal study in a first-level hospital in Luanda, Angola, we found rifampin-resistant and multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) in 38 (8%, 95% CI 5.7–10.8) of 474 patients with no previous history of TB. Of note, 2 patients (0.4%, 95% CI 0.1–1.5) demonstrated pre–extensively drug-resistant TB.
