Blog 1

The main topics of the podcast was about the spread of MDR TB and the risks of the new strand of TB. We should be concerned about MDR TB because it is a form of TB that is resistant to the cheap inexpensive drugs used to cure TB. Instead MDR TB has to use more expensive drugs and more powerful drugs to help cure the TB which will take longer than normal to cure. I personally am not to afraid because there are not very many cases of TB in the US. I also know that TB is very well monitored or screened by security before they can enter the US and now knowing about MDR TB they are able to recognize the multi drug resistant strand too. MDR TB has effected other treatment and management of diseases by making sure that infected people take the required medicine and the full course of the medicine so they don't create a new strand of the disease they already have.

  1. I deemed it important to let the world know about a man who cured me of HIV/AIDS, he is Dr. Iyabiye, and I never take it seriously when I first saw his recommendation online. I reached out to him not because I believed it but because my finances was running dry for buying HIV/aids Antiretroviral drugs to slow down the viral load all the time. But behold I got cured after the treatment. I went for checkup just as the doctor instructed and I was tested negative. Here are his contacts if anyone wish to reach him for help: +234-815-857-7300, iyabiyehealinghome@gmail.com
