Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by mycobacteria, usually Mycobacterium tuberculosis, that commonly attacks the lungs but can affect other parts of the body as well. It is spread through the air when people with an active MTB infection cough, sneeze or transmit saliva, infecting the lungs of others. TB remains a global health problem.
