Most people get TB by respiratory transmission though.
I neither agree or disagree.....and it is probably impossible to prove, because any experiments to prove or disprove modes of transmission would be unethical.
I DO surely believe that it is transmitted by small droplets of spittle containing the organism.....common sense wrt all respiratory diseases is self-explanatory. (despite claims to the contrary).
I would LOVE to see the folks at CDC who claim mosquitos don’t vector AIDS spend a few nights in a mosquito rich environment with a bunch of known HIV + people.......think they would? Not a chance! So much for their integrity.
