I have not heard anything being cured. It improved research regarding Parkinson's disease, Colonial cancer could be caused by virus, and general cancer cells.

TB is spread through the air from one person to another. The bacteria are put into the air when a person with active TB disease of the lungs or throat coughs or sneezes. People nearby may breathe in these bacteria and become infected.\n\nHowever, not everyone infected with TB bacteria becomes sick. People who are not sick have what is called latent TB infection. People who have latent TB infection do not feel sick, do not have any symptoms, and cannot spread TB to others. But, some people with latent TB infection go on to get TB disease.\n\nPeople with active TB disease can be treated and cured if they seek medical help. Even better, people with latent TB infection can take medicine so that they will not develop active TB disease.

Sorry to say but you cannot cure a cold.  It is a virus and there are almost no viruses that can be killed by medication.  Bacteria can be killed, but not a virus.  So, just make the symptoms as bearable as possible and wait.  It will be over in a few days.

There is no cure at this time for HIV.  The person can lead a relatively normal life, with the proper treatment.  Who knows, there may be a cure someday as well.

Tuberculosis (TB) is a disease caused by germs that are spread from person to person through the air. TB usually affects the lungs, but it can also affect other parts of the body, such as the brain, the kidneys, or the spine. A person with TB can die if they do not get treatment.\nThe general symptoms of TB disease include feelings of sickness or weakness, weight loss, fever, and night sweats. The symptoms of TB disease of the lungs also include coughing, chest pain, and the coughing up of blood. Symptoms of TB disease in other parts of the body depend on the area affected.\n\n\nTB germs are put into the air when a person with TB disease of the lungs or throat coughs, sneezes, speaks, or sings. These germs can stay in the air for several hours, depending on the environment. Persons who breathe in the air containing these TB germs can become infected; this is called latent TB infection. \n\n\nPeople with latent TB infection have TB germs in their bodies, but they are not sick because the germs are not active. These people do not have symptoms of TB disease, and they cannot spread the germs to others. However, they may develop TB disease in the future. They are often prescribed treatment to prevent them from developing TB disease. \n\nPeople with TB disease are sick from TB germs that are active, meaning that they are multiplying and destroying tissue in their body. They usually have symptoms of TB disease. People with TB disease of the lungs or throat are capable of spreading germs to others. They are prescribed drugs that can cure TB disease.\n\n\nA person with latent TB infection cannot spread germs to other people. You do not need to be tested if you have spent time with someone with latent TB infection. However, if you have spent time with someone with TB disease or someone with symptoms of TB, you should be tested. \n\n\nPeople with TB disease are most likely to spread the germs to people they spend time with every day, such as family members or coworkers. If you have been around someone who has TB disease, you should go to your doctor or your local health department for tests. \n\n\nThere are two tests that can be used to help detect TB infection. The Mantoux tuberculin skin test is performed by injecting a small amount of fluid (called tuberculin) into the skin in the lower part of the arm. A person given the tuberculin skin test must return within 48 to 72 hours to have a trained health care worker look for a reaction on the arm. A second test is the QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test. The QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test is a blood test that measures how the patient’s immune system reacts to the germs that cause TB. \n\nA positive tuberculin skin test or QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test only tells that a person has been infected with TB germs. It does not tell whether or not the person has progressed to TB disease. Other tests, such as a chest x-ray and a sample of sputum, are needed to see whether the person has TB disease. \n\nBCG is a vaccine for TB disease. BCG is used in many countries, but it is not generally recommended in the United States. BCG vaccination does not completely prevent people from getting TB. It may also cause a false positive tuberculin skin test. However, persons who have been vaccinated with BCG can be given a tuberculin skin test or QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test.\nIf you have latent TB infection but not TB disease, your doctor may want you to take a drug to kill the TB germs and prevent you from developing TB disease. The decision about taking treatment for latent infection will be based on your chances of developing TB disease. Some people are more likely than others to develop TB disease once they have TB infection. This includes people with HIV infection, people who were recently exposed to someone with TB disease, and people with certain medical conditions. \n\nTB disease can be cured by taking several drugs for 6 to 12 months. It is very important that people who have TB disease finish the medicine, and take

You mean tuberculosis lymphadenitis, an inflammation of the lymph glands caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis.  It is a TB that is outside the lungs.  TB is primarily a respiratory disease and is spread through droplet infection (sneezing, coughing).  If you belive you have been exposed to an active case, you will need to see your doctor for a Mantoux test (sometimes called a PPD).  It's a skin test using a purified protein derivative (PPD) with the results read 48-72 hours later. If you are the one with TBL, and I certainly hope you're not, you should be on a medication "cocktail" and in isolation (hopefully in a negative pressure room in a hospital).

Yes, it's an uncommon infection which affects people who have depressed immune systems.  It is in the same family as TB but not as catchy to normal people.  There are lots of ways to treat it.  It is spelled with a "y", mycobacterium.  Good luck.

Can TB Re-occur?\n\nYes it is possible. Like any bacterial infections, it can be caught and cured more than once. So if you have any doubts, please consult your local doctor.

There is NOT YET "cure" for AIDS.  There are several approved drug treatments that seem to slow the growth of the HIV viruses (which causes AIDS), and seem to slow the progress of the AIDS disease.\nSo far, these are imperfect for several reasons; they don't work for everyone, they have serious side effects, and the virus is "learning" to overcome these drugs.\nCancer is actually many different diseases, with many different causes, affecting many different parts of the body, and with many different outcomes.  There are cures for a few types of cancer; effective treatments for many others; but there are still some types that we don't\nhave effective weapons to use against.  \n\nWell.. But i believe it is on progress. see the links below. \n\nit's happened a long time ago... when people didn't believe about long distance communication [telegraph, phone, radio], or a box which could show some pictures [tv].

No.  Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by mycobacterium tuberculosis, a slow-growing bacteria that thrives in areas of the body that are rich in blood and oxygen, such as the lungs.

If only it weren't for the TB, we might have a solution for illegal immigration.  Right on man!
