A giant ribbon will not hang in front of the White House. No marches
will be held. The lights on the Empire State building will not shine a
special color. Instead, March 24th - World TB Day-is just like most
any other day. Little attention will be paid to the fact that
tuberculosis is now the number one infectious disease killer in the
world.
TB has long been the stepchild of the three major global health
diseases - AIDS, TB and malaria. A major reason why is that TB
primarily impacts people living in poverty, those who are voiceless or
whose voices are simply ignored. It is ironic that a curable disease
remains a disease fighting to gain attention.
It is also ironic that at a time when Ebola and Zika have put our
nation on notice about serious health threats, the same concern is not
given to TB, which can spread like wildfire just by coughing. We need
to look no further than Marion, Alabama to see how quickly TB can
overwhelm a city. TB in Marion is now worsethan in man...
