I know that there is a cure for the disease, but how do you die from the disease? What are the affects on the body, not the symptoms, but what does it actually do to the body?

"Progression from TB infection to TB disease occurs when the TB bacilli overcome the immune system defenses and begin to multiply. In primary TB disease—1–5% of cases—this occurs soon after infection.[1] However, in the majority of cases, a latent infection occurs that has no obvious symptoms[1]. These dormant bacilli can produce tuberculosis in 2–23% of these latent cases, often many years after infection.[82] The risk of reactivation increases with immunosuppression, such as that caused by infection with HIV. In patients co-infected with M. tuberculosis and HIV, the risk of reactivation increases to 10% per year
