Tess explores her options after learning that she has been exposed to TB. With Victoria Spivey "TB blues" and a poem from Regina D. Bess from CDC's Division of Tuberculosis Elimination. And a slide show with lots of facts and answers to all your TB questions!
Because of her work and domestic situation, Tess was unable to get a TB test at this time. Tess is no longer worried that she has TB, however. She had the good fortune to get tested in a dream that she had one night, and in the dream the test came up negative. Strictly as a precaution, Tess still plans to get tested. She's waiting to conclude her employment contract and thus regain the freedom to be in one town for three consecutive days (the duration needed to stay put in order to get a TB test). In the meantime, she is enjoying her new peace of mind.
How many Americans resort to intuition, prayer, or denial when faced with potentially life-threatening health problems because of difficulties with accessing health care?
