A California high school is at the center of a tuberculosis outbreak linked to an infectious student who tested positive for active TB in February, county health officials said Wednesday.
Are they covered by Obumblecare?
Four more students at Grant Union High School in Sacramento have contracted active TB. Three related tuberculosis cases are considered an outbreak, Sacramento County Department of Health and Human Services spokeswoman Laura McCasland said.
If three is an outbreak how many is an epidemic?
Four relatives and friends of the student who initially tested positive have also contracted active TB — bringing the total to nine known cases.
