Know Tuberculosis And Its Treatment
Tuberculosis (TB) is a disease that affects the lungs. According to the American Lung Association, it is caused by a type of bacteria called Mycobacterium tuberculosis. According to the The Mayo Clinic, people become infected by tuberculosis when they are exposed to the microscopic water droplets from an infected person's sneeze or cough. These water droplets contain Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria. So, whenever they are inhaled, the other person's lungs may also get affected. |
