Tuberculosis bacteria may invade various organs throughout the body, but mainly the lungs, which is called tuberculosis. Tuberculosis is also known as tuberculosis and''White plague'', is an ancient infectious disease that has had tuberculosis since the beginning of human history.

Historically, it has been widespread throughout the world and was once the main killer of humanity, claiming the lives of hundreds of millions of people. In 1882, Koho discovered that the causative bacterium of tuberculosis was Mycobacterium tuberculosis, but due to the lack of effective ** drugs, it is still widely prevalent worldwide. Since the fifties, the epidemic has been somewhat controlled by the continuous discovery of effective anti-tuberculosis drugs.

However, in recent years, due to the neglect of tuberculosis in many countries, financial investment has been reduced, coupled with population growth, an increase in the floating population, and the spread of HIV infection. As a result, the TB epidemic has declined slowly, and in some countries and regions, it has rebounded. So, the World Health Organization announced it in 1993"Global TB emergency", determined to be March 24 of each year"World Tuberculosis Day"

As long as we pay attention to it, increase investment, implement modern and scientific control strategies, and fight against it for a long time and without interruption, tuberculosis is a disease that can be controlled.
