Med student here...
In pathology, our prof was lecturing on infectious diseases, and
nonchalantly mentions that up to 1/3 of HIV patients may have TB
(estimate).
Next year I will be in clininc, seeing HIV patients on a daily basis.
Why such a nonchalant mention of TB? Shouldn't there be GREAT concern
that health workers that treat HIV patients will contract TB? Or is
it unlikely to spread to a non-immunocompromised individual?
