Some people infected with M. tuberculosis may have a negative reaction to the TST if many years have passed since they became infected. They may have a positive reaction to a subsequent TST because the initial test stimulates their ability to react to the test. This is commonly referred to as the booster effect and may incorrectly be interpreted as a skin test conversion (going from negative to positive). For this reason, the two-step method is recommended at the time of initial testing for individuals who may be tested periodically (e.g., health care workers).
