This is going to become a very big issue because Covid infections cause immune dysregulation. Large swathes of population are latent TB carriers and when immune damage occurs this opens a gateway.
'Tuberculosis is an infection caused by bacteria. It mainly affects the lungs, but it can affect any part of the body, including lymph glands, bones and the brain, causing meningitis. It is spread when a person with TB in their lungs or throat coughs or sneezes.'

Anyone over age 11 can get a Covid vaccine (& the one they pay for is the latest, most useful version!).
It isn't smart to restrict the availability of free Covid vaccine though, & it seems ridiculous to me to give last year's version to the most vulnerable (also done in previous years).
