Dozens of residents and staff at a care home have been diagnosed with the latent form of tuberculosis (TB) after a nurse was found to have the disease.
Tests are being carried out at The Grange in Gloucestershire to see if any of the people diagnosed have developed the active form of the infection.
Public Health England (PHE) said the nurse had since been treated and was no longer infectious.
