00:00 Here in Balitang Halay, we will give some clear beliefs and arguments.

00:04 So the question is, is it true?

00:06 Is it true?

00:09 First on our list, Doc, is tuberculosis really beneficial from the parents to the child?

00:16 This is one of the misconceptions.

00:23 Tuberculosis is not beneficial, if not because how can we acquire TB?

00:32 It's something that's airborne.

00:34 So if it's airborne and you need prolonged contact,

00:38 this is very common in families.

00:42 Especially in small houses, it's easy to get infected.

00:51 So it's airborne, so usually family members are affected by this.

00:56 But it has nothing to do with genetics.

01:00 So they just think it's beneficial because they can be with their family.

01:04 Yes, they can be with their family.

01:06 Is this true?

01:08 Is the chance of getting TB from those who smoke or those who sweat from the back?

01:13 Yes. Smoking itself is part of the advice that we give to our patients.

01:22 Stop smoking because it lowers the resistance.

01:29 The lungs are damaged from smoking and the bacteria of tuberculosis can easily get to the lungs.

01:37 So the chances of getting tuberculosis are greater.

01:43 Now, about the sweat from the back, this is also a fallacy.

01:46 There is no connection.

01:48 If you sweat from the back, you will get TB.

01:52 Is it true that only the lungs are affected by tuberculosis?

01:57 No.

01:59 Primarily, the most common is TB of the lungs.

02:04 But it can also affect other organs like the brain, kidneys, and bones.

02:13 There is also that.

02:15 Okay. Thank you very much for the information and for the time you shared in the news this afternoon.
