La Profª Green nos recuerda que mañana es el día mundial de la TBC y que la noticia estará en diferentes foros:
World Health Organization: http://www.who.int/campaigns/tb-day/2017/en/
Stop TB Partnership: http://www.stoptb.org/events/world_tb_day/ .
Como sabemos su importancia es trascendental, antes, a lo largo del desarrollo de la Historia de la humanidad, ahora, por las resistencias creadas (ya hay formas resistentes a todos los antibióticos conocidos), y con seguridad lo va a ser en el futuro. Y por supuesto las relaciones hombre-animales, que todos conocemos.
De ella tomamos la bibliografía que entrega a sus alumnos en su seminario sobre Global History of Health, y que a más de uno (¿verdad Dr. Ponte?) le va a venir bien.
Que lo disfrutéis.
Bibliography on TB as a global disease:
Note: in addition to the bibliography below (which comes from the syllabus for the Fall 2016 iteration of my “Global History of Health” class), I would add these two new items, which have come out since then and show the tremendous potential of genetics in helping to reconstruct the historical epidemiology of TB:
