I've never heard of anyone in Australia or any other country having tb......the doctor said that you can have it....carry it but not suffer from it.....bollocks? I cannot say...
It may be up to the doctor who signs the medical form they may rather a chest x ray for TB.
I did a blood test when I went for one however that was pre co vid and the blood test takes more than a week as it has to go to a hospital to incubate for several days.
