Tuberculosis



What is Tuberculosis (TB) ?

  • Tuberculosis (TB) is a serious infectious disease that mainly affect lungs. 
  • The bacteria that cause tuberculosis are spread from one person to another through tiny droplets released into the air via coughs and sneezes.
  • TB disease caused by a bacterium called Mycobacterium tuberculosis.


 What are the symptoms ?
  • Coughing that lasts three or more weeks
  • Coughing up blood
  • Chest pain, or pain with breathing or coughing
  • Unintentional weight loss
  • Fatigue
  • Fever

Prevention

Infants often are vaccinated with bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine because it can prevent severe tuberculosis in children.
  • Stay home. 
Don't go to work or school or sleep in a room with other people during the first few weeks of treatment for active tuberculosis.
  • Ventilate the room. 
Tuberculosis germs spread more easily in small closed spaces where air doesn't move. If it's not too cold outdoors, open the windows and use a fan to blow indoor air outside.
  • Cover your mouth. 
Use a tissue to cover your mouth anytime you laugh, sneeze or cough. Put the dirty tissue in a bag, seal it and throw it away.
  • Wear a mask. 
Wearing a surgical mask when you're around other people during the first three weeks of treatment may help lessen the risk of transmission.
