REPORTER CONTRACTS TB.
Boston Herald reporter Jules Crittenden writes today that
among the things he brought home from Iraq was an asymptomatic case
of tuberculosis.
He writes:
My biggest concern is
getting the word out to professionals now traveling to the region,
thanks to our ongoing wars and occupation of highly infected
areas. You need to be tested. The colleagues I've spoken to were
unaware of the risk.
Sounds like something every
newsroom ought to be thinking about.
