Your Tuberculosis Support Questions Answered
Find answers to common questions about tuberculosis and the support services we offer.
What is tuberculosis?
Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria. It primarily affects the lungs but can also impact other parts of the body. TB spreads through airborne particles when an infected person coughs or sneezes.
Who is at risk of contracting TB?
Anyone can get TB, but individuals with weakened immune systems (e.g., those with
HIV/AIDS, diabetes, or malnutrition) are at a higher risk. People in crowded living
conditions and healthcare workers are also at increased risk.
