Please, please, please join me in contacting your congressional representatives IMMEDIATELY to tell Congress to STAND UP AND ACT. Call too

For all the Americans here, there have been a LOT of pauses in funding of all kinds lately, especially in the area of medical aid… and apparently they want to stop all funding for TB treatment. Funding, which THE WORLD relies upon. In this post, John Green posted some info and links to call and email your representatives. If you are able, please let our government know this is NOT OK; stopping this funding means PEOPLE WILL DIE.

“And so we must remember that illness is not only a biomedical phenomenon, but also a constructed one, and how we imagine leprosy or OCD or tuberculosis matters.“

How did my prof manage to talk about TB for a full hour and never once mention any social determinants of health? Actually impressive
