Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious bacterial infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis that primarily affects the lungs but can also impact other organs. It is dangerous due to its ability to spread through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes, making it highly transmissible. Additionally, TB can become multidrug-resistant (MDR-TB), complicating treatment and increasing mortality rates, especially in immunocompromised individuals. Early detection and treatment are crucial to control its spread and improve outcomes.
