bTB is primarily a respiratory disease spread through moisture droplets either inhaled or by eating or drinking contaminated material. Humans can contract it but this is rare for those not directly in contact with livestock.
The disease is normally picked up by compulsory cattle-testing programmes before clinical signs develop, but it is also detected during routine inspections of slaughtered cattle.
