WORLD 🌍 TUBERCULOSIS DAY!

(THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY)



The war against TB begins with vaccination of children at birth.( With BCG vaccine)


'Yes We Can End TB'! Is the Theme for this year's World Tuberculosis Day!


According to the World Health Organization (WHO), tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria, which most commonly affect the lungs (pulmonary TB), though they can affect other parts of the body. It is a preventable and curable disease that spreads through the air when people with lung TB cough, sneeze, or spit. 


✍️I will be explaining the Good, the Bad and the Ugly side of TB


THE GOOD;πŸ˜ƒ


The Good news


about TB is, there's a CURE,  and the treatment is FREE! (there are some medical conditions that we are still looking for a cure for them). Since there's a solution, affected individuals should go ahead and access it.


THE BAD;πŸ˜” 


This may not really be bad, but for those who do not like to swallow pills πŸ’Š they may find it difficult when receiving TB treatment.( You have to take some tablets and these tablets are usually taken daily for a period of time)


THE UGLY;😫


The Ugly aspect of TB is that, when you do not comply with the treatment plan, you may "Relapse"and you will start the treatment all over with some injections.πŸ’‰ 


We can only End TB if we appreciate THE GOOD aspect of it,take note of THE BAD, and avoid the THE UGLY part of TB.



Together we can end TB indeed!!!πŸ™‹‍♂️πŸ™‹‍♀️
