The target tissues of tuberculosis are the respiratory system and lungs, and with the progress of the disease, it has a special effect on other organs of the body, especially the bone marrow, reproductive system, and glands. The agent that transmits tuberculosis is actually cough, sneeze, and mouth saliva, and it infects other people .through droplets In most cases, there is latent or inactive and active tuberculosis, and in latent tuberculosis, its diagnosis takes between 6 months and one year, when the patient is a carrier of the disease, but does not have any specific symptoms. The symptoms of active tuberculosis actually include chronic cough along with Bloody sputum, fever, night sweats and severe weight loss. Active tuberculosis is diagnosed through chest X-ray + microscopic tests and microbiological culture of body fluids.
  • Methods: Unfortunately, the most people who are at risk of tuberculosis are people are related to immunodeficiency infections such as AIDS and HIV, and recently the percentage of people infected with the corona virus is higher than others. Considering the age of tuberculosis and the fact that it has been several years since such a disease was diagnosed, there are still many Different vaccines have not been made for this disease, which requires global attention and consideration. Tuberculosis, with its high infectivity, has only one vaccine called the BCG vaccine, which is practically useless in adults and the elderly, and its use is This .determined when To be injected to children under 5 years old at birth and up to 5 years old statistical data has been analyzed among 14,927 people measured in 26 different countries of the world, and the percentage of vaccination was actually 18%, and the final result is the effectiveness of vaccination for children less than 5 years old. And attention should be paid to remaking the vaccine to be effective for all. The other cases that are investigated are about the emergence of treatmentresistant tuberculosis in Asian and African countries.
  • Results: The largest number of tuberculosis patients are The main reason for. Microbacteria are actually Gram-positive, but they do not stain because their cell walls It consists of three molecules Tuberculosis bacilli survive well in cool, dark and humid environments symptoms of tuberculosis disease in cattle are cough resulting from lung infection, body temperature change, lack of appetite, weight loss, mastitis, decrease in the amount of milk, abortion and infertility in cows. In fact, humans get infected through livestock, through the feces of infected animals, through milk, through uterine vaginal secretions, and through the mucous membranes of the nose and trachea, and through the skin. And in fact, in the end, the infected animal must be Drug-resistant
  • Conclusion: It has been about this. In fact, based on gender, men have higher infection rates than women, and in fact, because they are more likely to consume alcohol, smoke and smoke, they are actually at a more serious risk. And so are people who have diabetes.
