You can help stop TB.  Be aware of the symptoms of TB disease such as a cough lasting longer than three weeks, loss of appetite, weight loss, fatigue, night sweats, pain in the chest and possibly coughing up blood.  If you or anyone you know is experiencing any of these TB related symptoms, you must see a doctor right away.
