Is it Generally Known that TB is a Sexually Transmitted Disease?

No, it is not.  None of the medical text books that I've read mentions this issue.

TB is a highly infectious and deadly disease.  Common sense dictates that it is sexually transmitted.

Does Tuberculosis Cause Immune Deficiency?

Yes, not only does it cause immune deficiency, it can cause the complete collapse of the immune system in cases of full blown Miliary TB.  I have been stating this for many years to no avail.

However, recently, I read that a group of scientists have developed an asthma drug which copies the ability of TB to suppress the immune system. This proves that TB does, indeed, suppress the immune system.

Could Some Donated Blood Still be Contaminated?

The historical contaminated blood scandal is ongoing.  The Prime Minister has recently ordered a full inquiry into this tragedy. Theresa May launches inquiry into contaminated blood scandal

To date, donated blood is still not tested for Tuberculosis, and yet, this disease spreads through the body via the blood.

Imagine the effect on your entire body if you were injected with, or, received a transfusion of TB infected blood.
