Tuberculosis is transmitted through infected saliva particles that leave a person's mouth when they cough. Coughing into ones hand, touching someone else, and that person touching their nose or mouth could transmit the disease. Tuberculosis is also airborne, meaning if you cough near someone, those particles could affect that person without you directly touching them as well.

The immune system attacks the foreign antigen as if it were any bacterial infection. The B-cell lymphocytes mark the TB with antibodies that helps it remember the bacteria in the future.

However, if the immune system fails to contain the TB, or it becomes weakened by age, malnutrition or another disease like AIDS, the TB bacteria can escape and infect the body, which is why people can get TB during old age or without a TB infected person coming in contact with them.
