MDR TB query

2017-07-16 19:10:44
One of my friend has been diagnosed with MDR TB, she is taking her medication timely for like 3-4 months now, we usually hang out with her, share our food etc  so I was concerned whether we are also at risk of getting infected with that bacteria? What precautions should we take?

HELLO, CONSULT YOUR TREATING DOCTOR TILL THAN, DON'T EAT WITH HER IN SAME PLATE. THE UTENSILS MUST BE SEPARATELY WASHED. AT LEAST TWO TIMES. IF SHE COUGHS TALE HER TO PUT  HAND OR HANKY TO COCER HER MOUTH. ANY FOOD REMAIND ON HER PLATE SHOULD BE DICARDED. THAT'S ALL O.K BYE.
