Spread the Story, Stop the Disease
October 3rd, 2008You need to see these photographs. They’re both powerful and moving. They highlight the awful disease XDR -TB (the so-called drug-resistant TB), a new and deadly form of tuberculosis that is threatening to become a global pandemic. This is already a massive problem in South Africa.
By viewing and passing on this link we can help to spread awareness, which is the first step to halting the disease. XDRTB.ORG (http://www.xdrtb.org/)
(As background, the photographs were taken by leading photojournalist James Nachtwey and were ‘unveiled’ on October 3rd, 2008 in more than 50 cities on seven continents as a deliberate attempt to highlight this new danger faced by the world.)
