A tuberculosis outbreak in Minnesota is now the largest in the country infecting 17 people and killing six.

Of the six deaths, three have been a direct result of tuberculosis or TB.
Though TB is treatable with antibiotics, this particular strain is more difficult to fight because it is multi-drug resistant.
