The correct answer is option 1, Tuberculosis. Tuberculosis is a bacterial infection caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria. It primarily affects the lungs but can also spread to other parts of the body, including the kidneys and lymph nodes. In some cases, this infectious disease can be transmitted through contaminated milk. This can occur when cows or other animals that produce milk are infected with the bacteria, and the milk is not properly pasteurized or sterilized before consumption. It is important to note that tuberculosis is not typically spread through the consumption of properly pasteurized and sterilized milk. However, in areas where tuberculosis is prevalent and proper hygiene and sanitation practices are not followed in milk production and processing, there is a potential risk of transmission through milk.
