This disease usually attacks the lungs, but also can attack other organs such as the kidneys and spleen. Tuberculosis cannot be spread through things like shaking hands, touching door knobs, or by lack of hand washing. This is an airborne pathogen and is only spread through coming in prolonged contact with someone who is infected. There is a vaccine available, but it is not widely available in America. ]]> 2018-10-04 19:28:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mpeterm2/tibu2sn112dt/wish/289359280 mpeterm2 https://padlet.com/mpeterm2/tibu2sn112dt/wish/289361614 A bad cough that lasts longer than 3 weeks
