What is Active tuberculosis ?

Mycobacterium tuberculosis causes infection in people with active tuberculosis, mostly in the lungs but also in other systems. Around 8 million individuals worldwide are estimated by the World Health Organization to have active tuberculosis each year, and nearly 2 million are estimated to pass away from the condition.

  • Latent TB infection sufferers are symptom-free and do not feel ill. Despite having M. tuberculosis infection, they do not have TB disease. A positive response to the tuberculin skin test or TB blood test is the only indication of TB infection.
