Via CTV Saskatoon News: Tuberculosis scare at University of Saskatchewan. Excerpt:
A student at the University of Saskatchewan has been diagnosed with active tuberculosis.
Health officials confirm the student is now getting treatment, but other students may have been exposed.
The Saskatoon Health Region says the student was diagnosed earlier this week, after missing classes because of illness.
University of Saskatchewan officials say they’ve been working closely with TB Control Saskatchewan, and the deputy medical health officer to identify students who were in the same classes as the infected student.
Students who may have been exposed are being asked to attend a testing clinic, and have been provided with information about tuberculosis.
