Tuberculosis

Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It is a leading cause of death, especially in developing countries. Symptoms of TB include a chronic cough, fever, night sweats, and weight loss. It is spread through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. TB can be treated with a combination of antibiotics, and the World Health Organization recommends screenings in high-risk populations. The increased awareness and implementation of screening programs, along with improved treatment, have contributed to an overall reduction in the number of TB cases worldwide.
