No because it would go on to the tattoo needle and inject in to other people

In addition to the above given answer; tuberculosis is a very communicable disease which can be spread quite easily and maladies such as this simply cannot be overlooked when it comes to tattoing. We have the safety of ourselves and our clientele to think of, so overly no...but that would basically be at the discretion of the artist performing the tattoo and it would depend QUITE heavily on if you are actively taking antibiotics and receiving treatment to counteract the infection. The above given answer is completely wrong as well. The transmission of TB is restricted to saliva, not blood. Regardless of this, the needles are SINGLE USE ONLY...only a diseased Hep den would reuse needles, and then TB would most likely be the least of your problems!
