prevalent in India. I see Indian people doing it in the UK all the time and it is really disgusting.
Do not say this is a racist question as one of your own people asked the same question on Yahoo Answers but he went so far as to say that Indian people also litter and p*** on the ground!

This isn't a racist question so have no fear. I am mixed-race and often ask why are Black people overly critical...every creed, race, ethnic culture has it's "thing". As far as spreading TB, I don't think spitting on the ground does that! I think they are just being rude and disrespectful to their fellow human beings.

TB is spread through respiratory droplets, so it can be caught from simply being around an infected person who is talking. Spitting on the ground doesn't affect the prevalence of this disease.
