From the article:
A study by Stellenbosch University scientists has shown that certain people's immune systems react differently when exposed to the bacteria that cause tuberculosis (Mycobacterium tuberculosis or Mtb) than others.
This research, recently published in The Lancet's EBioMedicine journal, brings scientists one step closer to finding ways of preventing people from developing the disease.
