The Hunt for TB on Mars

This article has stated that Britain has created a small kit to be sent to Mars to detect the TB bacteria. The kit is a size of a shoebox to cut down on the weight of it. There is hope that the kit will help detect life elsewhere in the solar system. This might help also detect TB in a human patent. Right now there is only a 50% chance of figuring out if a patent has TB. It might take up to 10 doctors visits for a person to be diagnosed with TB and before then they can still be highly contagious.
