¿Esto suena natural? TB means Tuberculosis. In the past, TB is one of the general cause of death in Japan. Now that the medical level has evolved, people who died from TB have decreased. However, TB hasn’t disappeared now, and I have seen some people contract TB since I became a doctor. This February, my colleague contracted TB. Fortunately, I rarely met her at that time, so it seemed that I didn’t have to undergo the inspection, but the situation changed, and I still needed to be examined later. Fortunately, I haven’t been positive in the first time inspection, but I have to take a few more examinations from now on.

In fact, if we get TB, there are often no immediate symptoms. Therefore, we usually know we got TB after the inspection even though we don’t have any symptoms. It is essential to let people who have the possibility of TB take the TB inspection to protect spreading TB.
