The White Plague - Our Past Revisited

You've heard of the 'black plague', but what about the 'white plague'? This episode of the show is dedicated to Alberta Lung's 85th anniversary of advocating for lung health. On this month's edition of The Unsung Lung Podcast, Jacob sits down with renowned tuberculosis expert, Dr. Anne Fanning. A member of the Order of Canada and one of Alberta's Physician's of the Century, Dr. Fanning knows her fair share about TB. They dive head first into not only the science of TB, but the social justice aspects of the disease. Dr. Fanning discusses how TB targeted and still targets poor and marginalized communities, and what we can do to remedy this problem. This is such an amazing discussion for anyone passionate about social rights activism.
