Tuberculosis is the most common infection associted with AIDS. I Kibera, about half of all the people suffering from AIDS develop acute tuberculosis. It is estimated that about half of all the TB patients are also HIV positive.

Tuberculosis is an infectious disease spread through coughing and sneezing. Transmition is kom an infected patient to an health person. Therefore, all the TB patients must be encouraged to cover their mouths with a handkerchief or a piece of paper, which they must burn later. In my advice, laboratory testing is necessary to ascertain your TB status. please doctors in Kibera we thanks you for helping such people suffering from TB.
