Pneumonia and tuberculosis two diseases, in the symptoms are relatively similar, will show fever, cough, expectoration and breathing difficulties and other manifestations, is easy to cause misdiagnosis. But the two diseases are essentially different, tuberculosis is due to mycobacterium tuberculosis infection caused, and pneumonia is mostly due to bacteria, viruses and mycoplasma infection caused. Pneumonia is a respiratory tract infection disease, and tuberculosis is an infectious disease, we should do isolation prevention measures.
