  • Marion is in the throes of a tuberculosis outbreak so severe that it has posted an incidence rate about 100 times greater than the state’s and worse than in many developing countries.
  • Residents, local officials and medical experts said the struggle against the outbreak could be traced to generations of limited health care access, endemic poverty and mistrust — problems that are common across the rural South.
  • There’s not support for local medical care, so when something like this happens, you have a health delivery system that’s unprepared.”

  • In Marion, a city of fewer than 3,600 people, the toll of the slow-growing bacteria, commonly referred to as TB, has been staggering. Since January 2014, active tuberculosis has been diagnosed in 20 people, nearly all of them black; three have died. (Six people who live in other cities in Alabama have also received diagnoses of active tuberculosis and have been linked to the outbreak here.)
  • Others suggested that the history of medicine in Alabama, including the notorious medical experimentation in Tuskegee, was hampering efforts to contain tuberculosis.
  • n 1932, the United States Public Health Service began a study of untreated syphilis that involved 600 black men in Macon County, Ala., which includes Tuskegee.

    Fascinating! Scroll down to 1613, and then to 1620--check out how rapidly the export of tobacco took off! no wonder the owners of the Jamestown Joint Stock company kept shipping people over to Jamestown. . . there was huge profit to be had in cultivating tobacco! Notice also the countries that tried to prohibit tobacco in the early years of its availability in Europe and Asia. . .
