Brief Summary: Patients are exposed to infectious agents regularly regardless of their immunologic status Traditionally clinicians have decided to institute prophylaxis based on epidemiologic factors skin test ie PPD or immunologic parameters A quantitative and specific method that is non-invasive such as quantitative PCR would be desirable to more precisely define those who would benefit from prophylaxis Similarly when patients develop disease and are being treated quantitative non-invasive techniques are needed to assess response to therapy This project is designed to develop and test quantitative tests using blood urine or sputum samples
