Several examples of non-adult bones from Roman England with negative health markers, including bone lesions (lytic foci) indicative of tuberculosis.

Tuberculosis affects millions around the world, and has had a profound effect on our history.

It was more prevalent in Roman England than during the preceding Iron Age, indicating Roman occupation harmed the population's health.

Tuberculosis disproportionately impacts our northern and rural communities, recent immigrants, and people with weakened immune systems, but it is a disease we should all be aware of. On #WorldTuberculosisDay, here is a little food for thought.

The Health and Safety authority reported that the number of people in Ireland diagnosed with TB is relatively low (approximately over 400 cases annually). Stopping smoking, however, can significantly reduce chances of infection and improve overall lung health.

Vintage black-and-white studio portrait of American biochemist Florence Barbara Seibert (1897–1991), shown from the shoulders up. The young woman has short, dark, wavy 1920s-style hair parted on the side, wears round wire-rimmed eyeglasses, and offers a gentle smile toward the camera. She is dressed in a light-colored blouse with a ruffled collar. A studio imprint reading “A. F. R. S. Chicago” appears in the lower right corner.

Biochemist Florence Seibert developed the Purified Protein Derivative (PPD) in the 1930s. Before her work, TB skin tests were inconsistent & unreliable. Her PPD formula was adopted as the internat'l standard (1952) & remains the gold standard for TB testing today.
