Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Several superinfections may result when antifungals are given along with prolonged corticosteroid therapy.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Most cases of infectious TB are found in people who have not been adequately treated with antitubercular medications and in people who contract primary TB as a result of reduced immunity from human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. The diagnosis of tuberculosis is made from the patient's history, physical examination, x-ray studies, and laboratory work.
