Hmm tough question. Usually if someone knows they are infected with TB their doc has already prescribed a specific med..don't know if it's antibiotics or what, that keep the infection in the 'dormant' phase. When TB is in this dormant phase the risk of infection is non-existent from my understanding. If the infection was active you would be able to tell from her non-stop coughing. I guess I would say that if you are really that concerned, you should ask your co-worker about it. You aren't going to get TB just from her breathing on you, and if you are very harsh or mean about it you will just cause some hurt feelings.
Good Luck

why do you think she has TB? Coughing up blood, losing weight, night sweats etc? Its rude of course to get into anybodys face to talk to them, ask her to back off a bit in a nice way.
