The causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), this bacterium has a complex lifecycle and can remain latent in hosts for years. Its ability to evade the immune system and develop resistance to antibiotics makes it particularly concerning.

This bacterium causes Legionnaires' disease, a severe form of pneumonia. It's known for causing outbreaks related to contaminated water systems, making it somewhat "sketchy" due to its association with man-made water systems and potential for causing disease outbreaks.
