TB Chatter

This came up as a page one story today....out of southern Germany.  The public TV network, SWR, has reported that 109 cases of TB have been reported out of one single school.  Location?  Around Karlsruhe.

Parents have been contacted, and kids are being checked out.  Source of the TB?  Unknown.

The school itself?  They admit....it's an awful lot in a short period of time.

If you go back around 120 years ago....TB was a major problem in Germany.  In the past hundred years.....it'd been wiped out.  No one says much over why the numbers in the past decade have popped back up.
