Description: | Acid-fast, obligate aerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It is
responsible for tuberculosis. Tuberculosis is, to this day, according
to the WHO, the leading killer of adults. This is especially the case
in HIV-positive individuals. Drug resistant strains are emerging mainly
because people do not complete their treatment plans or have been
incorreclty treated and so have remained infectious.
