Tuberculosis has been around for thousands of years, and it still infects millions per year. This hour, we look back at how tuberculosis has shaped history and how it is still impacting health today. Plus, a look at the history of tuberculosis treatment, how tuberculosis has shaped modern architecture, and the impact of tuberculosis on art and artists.

Health leaders and advocates around the world are in the midst of creating a new architecture to deal with pandemics. This means new structures, systems and financing for pandemic prevention, preparedness and response — PPPR, for short. A lot is being discussed, and a lot more is riding on the decisions. Chris Collins, the CEO and President at Friends of the Global Fight Against AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria and an AVAC co-founder, has been tracking this work. He's warned of the risk of multiple, siloed systems for global health, and was a co-author of the recent PLOS Global Public Health article, Leveraging the HIV response to strengthen pandemic preparedness, which describes many parts of the HIV response that have been, and must continue to be, central to a bolder vision for this new architecture and for global health at large. In this episode of Px Pulse, Jeanne Baron talks to Chris about what's at stake, which policy-makers get it already, why this year matters so much, and what advocates can do about it.
In this week's Health Check we're talking about the protective effects of vaccines – but it's not quite what you think… We're delving into the science of how some vaccines could have unexpected effects beyond their intended target. They're called “non-specific effects” and we're only just at the beginning of our understanding despite scientists documenting this curious biological phenomenon more than 100 years ago. One of the earliest vaccines to be studied was the Bacillus Calmette-Guérin vaccine for Tuberculosis, better known as the BCG. Professor Christine Stabell-Benn gives us a history lesson and brings us up to date with her team's research at the Bandim Health Project in Guinea-Bissau, Western Africa. Also in the programme we hear about a new device for fixing bones being trialled in Gaza and Sri Lanka – and already in use in Ukraine. We hear from surgeons about what kind of patients they are treating and from UK researchers on hopes it will offer a low-cost, easy-to-make alternative in countries where there are shortages of these fixators. Our studio guest this week is BBC News health and science journalist Philippa Roxby who'll talk us through the latest after an 11-year-old girl in Cambodia died from the H5N1 strain of bird flu and we'll discuss new studies on long Covid and how much exercise we should be aiming to do each day.

The missional landscape has changed. The recent global events, the shifting distribution of Christians, and the realities of what God is allowing; are presenting a whole new missional landscape. What then are the new structures, approaches, and strategies that are proving effective for missions in our days? This will be shared with a special emphasis on the emerging role of medical missions and the strategy for partnerships. https://bit.ly/gmhc2022_florencemuindi_ourcurrentmission

Bell. We discussed Dr. Bell's book Food For The Dead, how folklore holds valuable information about human culture and how man has reconciled with and understood disease's like Tuberculosis as recently as 200 years ago. Only since the invention of Microscope have we had clear indications of a possible microscopic explanation for disease, nonetheless faith healing, folk medicine and arcane rituals persist in human culture. Consumption as it was known in the early days of American history, was often blamed on a vampiric disembodied evil that manifested its evil upon the living and siphoned vital energies into a nearby corpse usually of a known relative who recently perished to consumption themselves. Roman and I asked Dr. Bell many questions about folklore and Paracelsian medicine. Learn more from Doctor Bell, buy his book Food For The Dead via any major book retailer.

Waverly Hills Sanatorium provided medical care in response to the Tuberculosis outbreak in Louisville, Kentucky, from 1910 to 1961. Although the exact number is unknown, the total number of deaths within Waverly's walls is estimated to be between 50 to 64 thousand. Since its closure, the main sanatorium building was briefly opened as a geriatric care center before being closed by the government. It is now privately owned and has gained a lot of attention from paranormal investigators as it is considered one of the most haunted locations in the world.

In laboratories in Tanzania and Nairobi, rats have been trained to sniff out tuberculosis. Already known for finding land mines, the rodents could now transform the way the disease is detected.
Most Cochrane Reviews look at the effects of interventions on health, but a growing number provide evidence on how to diagnose a disease. In September 2022, one of these diagnostic test accuracy reviews was updated for a test used to detect tuberculosis in children. The lead author, Alex Kay (left), and co-author, Tara Ness, from the Texas Children's Hospital in Houston in the USA, tell us about the importance of the review and its latest findings in this podcast.
