This article seems to be skirting around a fundamental contributor to the recent increase in active TB cases in the USA. The unchecked entry of Central and South American “migrants” has introduced an unknown number of infected individuals to the population, mainly due to the Biden administration not having run the obligatory screening test on persons seeking entry. TB was almost eradicated in the USA by the mid-1950s, but in four short years, we’ve had decades of work undone.
I suspect the rise in TB cases in Europe is also the result of the above policy. That too should be in this article.
