Tuberculosis continues to be one of the world's most deadly infectious diseases, killing almost two million people each year. In this Medical Center Hour, historian Christian McMillen explores TB's stubborn staying power by examining key aspects of the disease—including the rise of drug resistance and TB's resurgence with the HIV/AIDS epidemic—and detailing global efforts to control it since 1900.
