🫁 Tuberculosis: Screening & Early Treatment
Tuberculosis (TB) is a serious but preventable and curable disease. It spreads through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes.
If you buy Kilishi that has these small round growths on them, there's a high chance that that cow had bovine Tuberculosis.
Can you get this disease from eating this meat?
A person can get bovine TB from drinking unpasteurised milk or eating undercooked meat.
