If you read the link for "The history of TB," 'acilli' Calmette-Guérin was supposed to be Bacilli Calmette-Guérin or Bacillus Calmette-Guérin, the TB vaccine. When I was a resident, I had an AIDS patient with Pott's disease. She complained of being unable to walk in the ER. IIRC, a CT was done already as an outpatient, which showed the lesion in her spine, but it was missed by the radiologist. After about a month in the hospital, she was able to walk out the door.

Seriously though, this is an important and fascinating discovery. The oldest known TB case jumping from several thousand years ago to half a million years ago - big step in this field.

DNA studies indicate that we’re not even related to neanderthals, much less any sort of more primitive hominid.

Humans have only been here @ 7000 years. It cracks me up to see those 6 and 7 digit numbers.
