There have only been two outbreaks of Completely Drug Resistant TB, both in India, and everyone who was infected died.

Tuberculosis (DR/MDR/XDR/CDR)

The vast majority of TB cases are “ordinary” TB, that is responsive to antibiotics. A small minority of cases are Drug Resistant. Multiple Drug Resistant and eXtremely Drug Resistant have been detected and dealt with just a few times in the US.

And nationally, there is no faster way to be put in isolated confinement than to be diagnosed with MDR TB. Such a diagnosis does not require a court order; nor can the individual claim Habeus Corpus.
