    Why should I be tested for inactive tuberculosis (TB)? [Spanish]

    La enfermedad de tuberculosis, o TB, es muy contagiosa y puede ser mortal. Los microbios de la tuberculosis pueden permanecer en su cuerpo durante años sin causar síntomas. Esto se llama infección de tuberculosis inactiva o latente. Si no se trata, la tuberculosis inactiva puede volverse tuberculosis activa en cualquier momento y enfermarlo. Una vez que la tuberculosis se vuelve activa, puede propagarse de persona a persona a través del aire. Hacerse la prueba de detección de la tuberculosis inactiva y recibir tratamiento puede protegerlo a usted, a sus familiares y amigos, y a su comunidad.
