Does anybody have any info in connection with crews catching TB on aircraft? Some story about some Singapore Airlines crew getting it. Any news/info would be appreciated.
Many thanks

I've not heard about any specific cases recently. However, general info on the transmission of infection on aircraft can be found at:

The World Health Organisation report "Tuberculosis and air travel" can be found at:

I hope that these are helpful.
