<s>[INST] Hi, Im a Police Officer. I arrested a male individual today well yesterday night, after I did the fingerprints 2 times! and speaking with this individual less that 1 feet away he told me he has Aids and TB. I know Aids is hard to get with just skin contact etc but my concern is the TB part, being that close and him breathing and speaking with me freaked me out a bit, should I see my doc ASAP?? I want to go to bed relaxed! :-) [/INST] Hello,Welcome to HCM,Pulmonary TB is a disease transmitted by droplet infection and droplet nuclei, as you arrested a male individual today and spoke to him at a distance of less that 1 feet.You are at a risk of acquiring this disease but all individuals can not develop the disease and it all depends on the immune status of the individual.Even though bacteria enters your throat it may not produce any disease in you but whenever there is suppression of the immunity you may develop the disease but chance of getting it is very very less.Thank you. </s>
