Agreed. It seems to be (here in our country) a disease of the past, but unfortunately, in some areas of the world, it is not.

I don’t like hearing that! I had atypical TB 45 years ago. I got locked into a TB Ward at Milwaukee General, for almost a year before they figured out I wasn’t contagious and probably picked it up gardening. I had a huge Lilly patch in my yard.
