"Tuberculosis. TB. The rod-shaped microbe that famously wrecked the lungs and lives of John Keats, Emily Bronte and others. In case you hadn't heard, it's back and enjoying a new lease of life in the era of Puff Daddy and Lara Croft....And yet TB lacks the pull of HIV, Ebola or malaria. No Hollywood movie dramatises its workaday carnage. The disease conjures up not drama but humdrum images of Asian and African poverty, fuelling a complacency and ennui that drives TB specialists to despair." (NEW SCIENTIST) This article maintains that tuberculosis is making a comeback around the world and outlines what researchers are doing to stem the infectious spread worldwide.
