About XDRTB (Extreme Drug Resistant Tuberculosis):
Extreme Drug Resistant Tuberculosis (XDR-TB) is a mutated form of tuberculosis that has already been detected in 49 countries. One person dies every 20 seconds. There is no reliable cure.
This “new” illness is becoming a major problem worldwide. The first step in preventing its spread and finding a cure is awareness.
