Will a treated tuberculosis patient becomes infected again if exposed to smokers


Will a treated tuberculosis patient becomes infected again if exposed to smokers?
I have a friend who undergone treatment for tuberculosis for 2 years already and finished the treatment religiously. In the environment she lives in, she's still exposed to people who smoke. Is there a chance tha the bacteria will grow back and suffer that disease? Pls help me give info so that i can share it to her. Thank you so much.
