Did you see the part where her father is being treated for TB, a former classmate had TB, and the went to Pakistan recently on a trip? Add all that with her symptoms and it should have been a no brainer. A simple sputum test would have shown it immediately..........

Yes. Anyone living in close contact with a known TB patient needs to be treated with Rifampin prophylactically. This case is a crying shame and a tragedy.
