I'm sorry to hear about a child with TB. It's another disease that people used to be vaccinated against, but that too has gone by the way side.

As a hospital worker until recently, I did see many active TB cases. I am vaccinated and immune, but it's not a disease you really think of children contracting.

I do so hope the child recovers, and that the other children at the school all test clear.
