The University of Victoria is warning students, faculty and staff after an active case of tuberculosis was discovered on campus.

In a statement Thursday, the school said the patient, identified only as a "member of the campus community," has been in isolation since they were diagnosed with the lung infection.

"We want to assure students, faculty, staff, parents and guardians that the university and Island Health are taking active steps to respond to this situation and support the university community," the statement said.

People who may have been in close contact with the patient have been notified and provided directions for screening for the infection, the university said.

"While the risk of transmission is low, UVic is working closely with Island Health on protocols to identify, screen and treat those who may have been exposed."

Anyone who did not receive an email from health authorities does not need to be tested, the school said.

Tuberculosis, also known as TB, is an infection caused by a slow-growing bacterium, most often in the lungs.
