Correct Answer: Tuberculosis


Solution : The correct option is Tuberculosis.

The BCG (Bacillus Calmette-Guérin) vaccine is primarily used to prevent tuberculosis (TB), a bacterial infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The BCG vaccination comprises a weakened strain of Mycobacterium bovis, a bacterium related to M. tuberculosis. It does not give total protection against tuberculosis, but it can lessen the incidence of severe cases in young children.
