“Bad choices are part of life, aren’t they? Doesn’t mean your next choice can’t be a good one.”
― Sarah Morgan, One Summer in Paris

“And so we have entered a strange era of human history: A preventable, curable infectious disease remains our deadliest. That's the world we are currently choosing.”
― John Green, Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection

“People who are treated as less than fully human by the social order are more susceptible to tuberculosis but it’s not because of their moral codes or choices or genetics, it’s because they are treated as less than fully human by the social order.”
― John Green, Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection

“We cannot address TB only with vaccines and medications. We cannot address it only with comprehensive STP programs. We must also address the root cause of tuberculosis, which is injustice. In a world where everyone can eat, and access healthcare, and be treated humanely, tuberculosis has no chance. Ultimately, we are the cause.

We must also be the cure.”
― John Green, Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection
