Answer:

If someone is infected with tuberculosis, he may not experience symptoms until long after being infected.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tubeculosis (TB) is an infection produced by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a Mycobacteria, causing pulmonary TB that can be treated with specific antibiotics.

Mycobacterial infection can be slow and insidious, so symptoms may not occur until long after infection. This means that despite having bacteria in the body, there may be no symptoms.

Other options that are not true about tuberculosis:

  • No develop of serious complications quickly .
  • There is not always a severe cough.
  • Someone may not know his condition and and will not become seriously ill, unless he receives treatment.
