The piece explains why tuberculosis remains a persistent health concern in the United States with more than 80,000 active cases annually and about 10,000 deaths each year. It notes that 30 to 40 million people are circulating with TB germs, many inactive, but about two million may eventually reactivate, highlighting ongoing challenges in eradicating the disease.
The article discusses how tuberculosis can develop into active disease if not found early. It recommends a simple tuberculin skin test to determine if the infection is latent or active, noting that a positive result requires professional evaluation and possibly chest X rays. It also mentions periodic testing for those over 45 to ensure no hidden infection remains.
