Tuberculosis (TB) is a bacterial disease ( tubercle bacilli) and has an [ incubation period ] of 12 weeks. The symptoms include a d ry cough, periods of breathlessness, a slight fever, sweating in the night, extreme fatigue, loss of weight, loss of appetite, and coughing up blood. TB attacks lungs, causing cavities which scar lung tissue. TB has a 1% fatality rate. TB is spread by sneezing, talking, coughing, but usually requires months of close contact. Malnutrition can speed up the spread of TB. Testing for TB takes a few days. A small portion of tuberculin solution is injected under the skin. A few days later, bumps appear. The size of the bumps determines the results of the test. Further testing then reveals the severity of the disease. It takes six to twelve months of drug therapy to rid the body of TB. The treatment requires a lot of money and may involve a hospital stay. In 1946 the drug streptomycin was discovered to eliminate the disease. There is a vaccine for TB but it is not very effective.

85. Tuberculosis, NIAID Fact Sheet
Many people think tuberculosis (TB) is a disease of the past. Most persons that are infected with M. tuberculosis harbor the bacterium without symptoms
http://www.niaid.nih.gov/factsheets/tb.htm
March 2002
Tuberculosis
M. tuberculosis . TB is a chronic bacterial infection. It is spread through the air and usually infects the lungs, although other organs are sometimes involved. Most persons that are infected with M. tuberculosis harbor the bacterium without symptoms but many develop active TB disease. Each year, 8 million people worldwide develop active TB and 3 million die. Is TB a problem in the United States? In the United States, TB has re-emerged as a serious public health problem. In 2001, based on provisional data reported to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the number of cases has decreased for the ninth straight year to 15,991 cases of active TB (infection with full-blown disease symptoms). This all-time low is due largely to improved public health control measures. In addition to those with active TB, however, an estimated 10 to 15 million people in the United States are infected with M. tuberculosis

86. An History Of The Fight Against Tuberculosis In Canada.
Dr. David A. Stewart was the eldest son of Francis Beattie Stewart and Elizabeth Farquharson Stewart who left Aberdeenshire in the UK, and settled at Fletcher, Ontario, until 1891 when they moved to Morden, Manitoba.

People Profiles
Dr. David Alexander Stewart (1874-1937)
Dr. David A. Stewart was the eldest son of Francis Beattie Stewart and Elizabeth Farquharson Stewart who left Aberdeenshire in the UK, and settled at Fletcher, Ontario, until 1891 when they moved to Morden, Manitoba. After graduation from Arts, and two preliminary years in Theology at Manitoba College, the young Stewart spent his summer at the mission in Frank, Alberta. Here, he met and befriended Dr. George Malcolmson, who had recently opened a small hospital beside his home. As a result of his summer with Dr. Malcolmson, Stewart opted for a change in vocation.
People - Archibald - Dalton - Cook - Fagan ... - Wodehouse
Returning again to Manitoba in the Fall, Stewart resumed study not in Theology, but in Medicine, and emerged four years later, Dr. D.A. Stewart. To support his medical studies, Stewart became a reporter for the Winnipeg Free Press, and then followed with a residency at Winnipeg General Hospital. After spending some time working in various hospitals in New York City, attending the World TB Congress in Washington in 1908, and completing an assistantship in a Connecticut sanatorium, Dr. Stewart returned once again to Manitoba. At this time, he accepted a position with the Sanatorium Board, who wished to open a tuberculosis sanatorium in Manitoba. Dr. Stewart's dedication to his cause, applied through travel and lectures for raising funds, made him a target for the very disease he was trying to fight. For a short time, Dr. Stewart became a patient himself, at the Trudeau Sanatorium at Saranac Lake, New York

Gaylord's Alpine Center a sight to behold
By MIKE NORTON Record-Eagle staff writer GAYLORD - Forget the faux Suisse frills on the Alpenstrasse, and even St. Mary's Cathedral, which looks more like a half-sunken alien Mother Ship than anything else. If you want to see the best architecture Gaylord has to offer, you've got to head north of town to the J. Richard Yuill Alpine Center. Built in 1937 as a 128-bed tuberculosis sanitarium, the Alpine Center was the work of the Depression-era Works Progress Administration. In the 1960s it became the Gaylord State Home, a residential and training institution for people with developmental disabilities. Today it houses a variety of state, county and other public offices. Even though the big four-story main building is in a somewhat severe style, it's full of decorative touches that have long vanished from today's public buildings. But the stars of the complex are the cottages and other outbuildings: built of red brick with white stone sills, copper guttering and steep dark roofs. In a way, they're Gaylord's version of the Traverse City State Hospital complex - except that they're in much better shape.

    The complete genome sequence of the tuberculosis bacillus, Mycobacterium tuberculosis , was presented in Nature in June 1998. This slow-growing pathogen is among the most recalcitrant in terms of clinical treatment, so there was particular interest in what the sequence revealed about its biology. The remarkably large proportion of its coding capacity devoted to producing enzymes involved in lipogenesis and lipolysis was immediately evident. CNRI/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY article

    INTRODUCTION: TUBERCULOSIS TODAY
    In 1984, the Public Health Service reported that the number of tuberculosis cases reported annually in 1953 had declined by 74 percent. It was widely believed that modern medicine had all but eradicated this potentially fatal disease. The wake-up call alerting the public to the resurgence of tuberculosis came between 1985 and 1993, when the number of cases reported in the United States began to increase steadily and dramatically. Today TB is back, and if proper measures are not taken to educate people about this preventable disease, infection rates will continue to rise at an alarming rate.

    by Susan Tunick
    President, Friends of Terra Cotta
    Seaview Hospital-Farm Colony Historic District was designated an official New York City Landmark in 1985. Today, most of the building on this property remain vacant and many are in a severe state of deterioration Demolition by neglect is an unacceptable fate for New York's landmark buildings. The Friends of Terra Cotta is particularly concerned about the exacerbated condition of the ceramic murals and ornament which surround the tops of the Women's Ward Pavilions, buildings #1 - #4. These remarkable works were produced in Delft, Holland by De Porceleyne Fles Numerous tile experts have been interested in seeing these and they will be featured in an upcoming publication by Hans Van Lemmen. After a visit in late February 1998, during which some of these horrendous conditions were documented, it is clear that we must make the city take appropriate action.
    Photos by David Jones Seaview Hospital is situated today on 400 acres surrounded by residential property, a golf course, park and high school.

    on page 2667.
    D uring the early years of the past century, one of every five persons in the United States developed active tuberculosis. The disease was the leading killer of that time, the "captain of all men of death." After 1953, the incidence of tuberculosis declined by almost 75 percent, to a low of 9.3 cases per 100,000 general population in 1985. Beginning in 1986, an unexpected resurgence of tuberculosis occurred in the United States, with the incidence of the disease rising to 10.5 cases per 100,000 population by 1992. Contributing factors included the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) epidemic, the immigration of large numbers of persons from countries in which tuberculosis is highly prevalent, the rise of multidrug-resistant mycobacterial organisms and the decline of local tuberculosis control programs.
