Shifting environmental conditions – from wildfires, flooding, and air pollution – can have far-reaching impacts on people’s lives as well as the burden of TB. For communities already facing socioeconomic and healthcare inequities, this makes disease spread and access to vital diagnostics and treatment all the more challenging

So I'm reading Everything is Tuberculosis by John Green. It is as thoroughly disturbing and mortifying as you might think it would be, but it is also beautiful and profound and very much worth reading.

The author has an incredible way of weaving narrative that unfolds deep cuts of history and science that is quite captivating, compelling, and ultimately enlightening.

Did you know that the "Cowboy Hat" Stetson was invented at least in part due to tuberculosis?

I'm only about halfway through but I would still heartily recommend this book to anyone. It's NOT a feel good happy read however, so you should definitely be prepared.

We speak so much about cancer, COVID and HIV that people sometimes forget that bacterial diseases are still a big issue. Tuberculosis, especially multi-drug resistant tuberculosis is a growing problem.
Only in the year 2023 1.25 million people were killed by this disease.
And events like the war in Ukraine contribute to the spread of tuberculosis.

«ICE agents’ demands stacked up. They requested detainees’ medical information, which they said was “required for the flights,” in addition to bagged meals and clothing. Sometimes, they arrived in the middle of the night.»

So these are just the additional cases and deaths from #tuberculosis from #ElonMusk killing #USAID. If funding does not resume, by 2030 more than two million people will have died that would have lived otherwise. #tesla #usa
