Tuberculosis is a disease that truly concerns me because it is airborne. Meaning that I could get it from anyone, anywhere, at any given time. It is a contagious disease in which bacteria can spread through bloodstreams and infect any organ in your body, especially the lungs. The treatment for Tuberculosis requires drugs over a six- to nine-month period. It will not get rid of the infection, however, if the body starts to weaken, then the infection will start to spread more sufficiently.
