Apparently it ISN'T bovine TB after all then?
Prof Sebastian Gagneux, from the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute, said: "We found that the most basal - the earliest - lineages of TB and humans originated in the same place, in Africa, 60,000 years earlier than what people previously thought.
"What we have done is provide a strong hypothesis to reinforce the idea that TB originally started in humans, and migrated to animals during NDT."

Apparently it was actually called Mammalian TB until it was decided to start testing cows because the stuff testing it is for cows and is called something for cow testing that is where the NEW NAME!!!!! Is derived from...how unfair on the poor old moo cow and farmer.
