Question

I've been around a lot of TB patients lately, and with them coughing near me, I'm starting to worry. Is there anything I should do or any medicine I can take to prevent getting exposed or infected again? I've already had TB two years ago, so I'm concerned because my immune system might still be compromised. What do you suggest?
