Question
tuberculosis (part 1) • how does tb spread? tb is spread: from person to person through the air; through unprotected sex; by sharing cigarettes
Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It spreads through the air when an infected person with active TB disease coughs, sneezes, speaks, or sings, releasing TB bacteria - containing droplets that others can inhale. Unprotected sex is not a mode of TB transmission, and sharing cigarettes also does not spread TB. So the correct way TB spreads is from person to person through the air.
