Are you at risk for TB?

Tuberculosis is an airborne disease that doesn’t always cause symptoms.

The Tuberculosis Blood Test may be for you if:

You need to show proof of a negative TB test for school, work, or international travel.

You’ve been exposed to someone with a current or past TB infection.

You’ve lived in or have visited a TB–endemic country, including Russia and most countries in Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa, Asia, and Eastern Europe.¹

You work in a high–risk environment like a hospital.

You have a weakened immune system or are experiencing symptoms like chest pain, fever, unexplained weight loss, fatigue, night sweats, a chronic cough, or coughing up blood.
