Tuberculosis is an infectious disease that is spread by contact with the patient's sputum rather than by contact with the patient himself and therefore the danger of infection diminishes with the effectiveness of the measures used in the disposal of sputum, etc. Owing to the more rigid observance of the measures of disposal of sputum in a sanatorium, the chances of infection here are less than elsewhere.
