TB is an airborne disease it tends to spread mostly through air, if the infected person simply coughs,sneezes,talks or even breathes the infection will be likely to be spread if a person inhales it then they'll be likely to have tb
TB is not a bacteria but a mycobacterium. Most people who become infected do get sick but not everyone infected with TB bacteria becomes sick.Roughly 5% of people infected with M. tuberculosis actually develop TB. But there are people who are infected but not sick. They have latent TB infection. Those who have a latent infection are asymptomatic, do not feel sick, and are not contagious.In short it is not considered a bacteria and in some cases it does be come inactive.

You certainly can.
Yes a school can require you to get a TB test, so it doesn't spread.
Tuberculosis is the long form of TB. It is a contagious disease that is easily spread and attacks the respiratory system.
Fever can be found in many types of illnesses. TB has a certain set of symptoms. Among them are: night sweats, shortness of breath, cough, fever, weight loss, fatigue. TB, left untreated, can be dangerous. TB is contagious. It is spread by droplets from the infected person. It is spread more rapidly indoors or in enclosed spaces. TB can spread quickly in tight confined places such as jails and barracks
the kidneys are probably the commonest site of extrapulmonary TB. There may, however, be few symptoms even though part of a kidney is destroyed. TB may spread to the bladder. In men, it may spread to the prostate gland and nearby structures.

Yes, it is possible that a person previously diagnosed with active TB and was completely cured be suspected to haveÊlatent TB. Aside from the medicine that cured the patient of active TB, there is also a high chance that the body's immune system has controlled the infection but unable to completely remove it from the body. Hence, the infection remains in the body, lying in an inactive or latent state.
No, that's totally wrong because TB means to cough regularly so there are no germs of cough your reproductive parts.
it is spread though the lungs , because the microbes are so small it makes it easier however they spread slowing which means that you might not get any symptoms for i while , it could take up to a year to realise you have tb.
