When people suffering from active pulmonary TB cough, sneeze, speak, or spit, they expel microscopic infectious aerosol droplets . A single sneeze can release up to 40,000 droplets. Each one of these droplets may transmit the disease, since the infectious dose of tuberculosis is very low and inhaling less than ten bacteria may cause an infection. Lysol isn't going to be affective on aerosol droplets floating through the air
