What is tuberculosis?

Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the bacteria that causes tuberculosis (TB). TB germs often attack the lungs, but they can attack any region of the body, including the kidney, spine, and brain.

When an infected individual coughs or sneezes, the germs that cause tuberculosis spread. The majority of people who are infected with the germs that cause tuberculosis do not show symptoms. When symptoms do appear, they are typically accompanied by a cough (sometimes blood-tinged), weight loss, night sweats, and fever.
