 FAQS

5. Can Exposure to Silica Cause Tuberculosis?

Yes. Persons with silicosis are at high risk for developing tuberculosis (TB). Silica is believed to interfere with the body's immune response to the bacteria that causes TB. Routine, yearly skin testing to check for exposure to TB, is recommended. Treatment with anti-TB drugs is recommended for persons with a positive skin test.
