    A not insignificant number of these TB carriers are going to go to the superbowl and infect shit loads of people. TB takes months to clear on very strong antibiotics, and I bet more than one person is gonna be all “I feel fine, I’ve been on meds for a month, I can go to the superbowl”

      I don’t know how accurate this is, but someone I know went through a course of anti TB meds and it was the worst experience of her life. It’s not like we want this back.
