It's spread through respiratory droplets, saliva, and other body fluids.

Its spread through the air. Via sneezing and saliva. So if you live in close quarters with someone who has it yes your are likely to get it.

Tuberculosis is not a sexually transmitted disease. but if you are with a person who has TB you can definitely catch it by being near them. TB is extremely contagious!
