Children with tuberculosis, 1919. The child to the left is almost blind and unable to walk, and the girl on the right is disabled as a result of malnutrition and tuberculosis. Tuberculosis (TB) is a bacterial infection that normally affects the lungs, but can also affect other body tissues. It was a widespread cause of disability and death before the use of a vaccine (from 1921) and antibiotics (from 1944). Photographed by the American Red Cross in Czechoslovakia. | |
