\n“This is a race between the ability of a deadly, mutated bacteria to spread, and our ability to spread awareness first. Health authorities know what needs to be done, but politicians and the public at large don’t have XDR-TB on their radar. That’s what James Nachtwey’s powerful TED Prize wish is all about.”<\/em><\/p>\n

\nMore information from the site: “XDRTB.org<\/a> is an extraordinary effort to tell the story of extremely drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) and TB through powerful photographs taken by James Nachtwey. XDR-TB, or extremely drug-resistant tuberculosis, is a new and deadly mutation of tuberculosis. Similar in creation to multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) but more extreme in its manifestation, it arises when common tuberculosis goes untreated or standard TB drugs are misused. James\u2019 photographs represent these varying strains. Learn more about TB, MDR-TB and XDR-TB, and learn how you can take action<\/a> to stop this deadly disease.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
