Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex organisms are the cause of the airborne infectious disease known as tuberculosis (TB). Although M. tuberculosis is primarily a pulmonary pathogen, it can infect practically any area of the body and lead to disease. M. tuberculosis infection can progress from a state of containment in the host, where the bacteria are isolated within granulomas (latent TB infection), to a contagious state, in which the patient will exhibit symptoms such as coughing up blood, having a fever, sweating excessively at night, and losing weight. Contagious pulmonary TB is the only active kind. Drug-resistant TB is a major concern in many contexts, and it continues to be a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in many low- and middle-income nations. Although several innovative TB diagnostics, such as quick molecular testing, have been created, there is still a demand for more straightforward point-of-care tests. Several antimicrobials must typically be taken for a long period throughout treatment, prompting efforts to create shorter medication regimens. The Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine is widely used, mostly to protect newborns and young children from TB that can be fatal, but it has not been successful in containing the global TB epidemic. Thus, attempts are being made to create novel vaccinations with greater efficacy. This review article was created after a thorough analysis of the literature to better understand and raise awareness about tuberculosis. This is a real effort to assist tuberculosis to be eradicated from the pit lanet in the not-too-distant future.
