Tuberculosis (TB) is a communicable disease that is a major cause of ill health.
-
TB is caused by the bacillus Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb)

TB disease typically affects the lungs (pulmonary TB) (80%) but can also affect other parts of the body (extra pulmonary TB) (20%)

It spreads when people who are sick with TB expel bacteria into the air (for example by coughing, sneezing, shouting or singing)
