You’ve probably heard about tuberculosis (TB), a preventable and curable infectious disease caused by bacteria. TB bacteria are spread through the air when a person with TB coughs, speaks, or even sings.But did you know that most people infected with the bacteria that cause tuberculosis don't have symptoms? When symptoms do occur, they usually include cough (sometimes blood-tinged), weight loss, night sweats, and fever.Testing is essential to stopping the spread of TB. If you have symptoms or think you have been exposed to someone with TB, contact your local clinic about getting a TB test. Be sure to tell the health aide or provider when you spent time with the infected person.There are currently active flare-ups of TB in the YK Delta. The current case counts are increased from prior years and can lead to strain on the health care system. That is why it is so important for everyone to be evaluated if they have symptoms.To learn more, please read our full statement at www.ykhc.org/tuberculosis-in-the-yk-delta/. ... See MoreSee Less
