How Is Is Passed On?
Posted: 05-01-06 15:19pm

My husband was staying with his family for a week in france about 2 months ago and has just found out that one of them that he was there with had tb, and that the rest of the family that was there had just been in hospital for 5 days having tests. My husband has had his tb jab, but is it possible that he could bring it back with him and give it to one of the kids? We have a 4 year old and yesterday morning he has woken with just a cough and no cold and im worried he may have passed it on to him? Is this possible or is there no risk for my son? Also should my hubby still be check for it even though he has had the jab?
