TB transmission How is TB spread?
How contagious is TB? TB is not as contagious as other diseases such as the flu or chickenpox. To get infected, a person usually has to spend many hours every day with the person with infectious TB disease. People who live in overcrowded housing with poor air circulation may be more at risk of getting TB infection.
