TB spreads through droplets produced by infected pulmonary TB patient during coughing. TB does not spread by sharing same bottle for drinking water. Any person whether immunocompetent or immunocompromised can get infected by TB bacilli. The chances of conversion of infection to TB disease are higher in immunocompromised than in immunocompetent person.
