SAN DIEGO — San Diego State University says a former bookstore employee has tested positive for tuberculosis.
"Aztec Shops has organized no-cost TB testing for all employees identified by HHSA and Aztec Shops as close contacts," the university's statement says."No additional cases have been reported."That email stated the TB exposure happened between Feb. 22 and June 22, mainly at the Charles B.
