No. It's standard practice in my area to test pregnant women for TB prior to
admission to hospital (because TB rates are quite high in the region), and
it is considered perfectly safe.

All opinions expressed in this post are well-reasoned and insightful.
Needless to say, they are not those of my Internet Service Provider, its
other subscribers or lackeys. Anyone who says otherwise is itchin' for a
