Jack Peterson Posted July 17, 2015 Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) I read your study dated 2012, so I am updated, thanks. 2012 or not it is a fact We do not per se have squatters up north of San Fernando La Union. Sorry please explain what this has to do with Squatters. Don't please start a new thing on Class it has nothing to do with Class, TB will get who it wants.When it wants. it is a health thing not a class thing. One of the Best PM's we have had in the UK died of TB but I guess he was just a Squatter in No 10 Downing Street :rolleyes: JP :tiphat: slight edit to get a word in Edited July 17, 2015 by Jack Peterson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris49 Posted July 17, 2015 Posted July 17, 2015 Dengue and TB are more prevalent in squatter areas. My connection is better at night so will source some DOH Epidemilggical materials and try to post by AM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Peterson Posted July 17, 2015 Posted July 17, 2015 Dengue and TB are more prevalent in squatter areas. Chris I can assure you that the OP does not love in a Squatter Area neither do I and TB is Rife regardless but you carry on with the research which will only confirm what I have been saying. Since guns were invented, people have been shot with bullets, it never Changes, these 3rd World countries will have these now practically eradicated issues (in the west) Until they admit a problem and do something about. No sense in even trying to explain to those that can't see, so it will go on. For me; Test for it, Diagnose it, Treat it, Cure it.

(The RICH travel more so it can be kind of a class thing but OPPOSITE :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP :tiphat: Jack, the girl who was coughing in the OP is not diagnosed as TB, is she? Found quite a bit on a simple Google search on TB in Urban Poor areas in the Philippines. Including the WHO study and there are others. Tuberculosis is more prevalent in high-risk population such as the urban poor. Excerpt from the WHO Study. http://www.wpro.who.int/philippines/areas/urban_health/finding_tb_cases_by_rup/en/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Peterson Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 Jack, the girl who was coughing in the OP is not diagnosed as TB, is she? No Chris and that is the whole point of the Topic, the point being that the Doctor in Question is not providing the Due care of his worker of family in insisting on a test on anyone and thus to me anyway neglecting his duty as a Doctor in Providing that Duty of Care to the general Public and neighbours in Particular. Statistics are fine when you can Control the input but if people and Doctors in particular can't or won't have people tested then the problem is going to get worse. and statistics can go out of the Window. No matter where it is if it doesn't get tested it can't get treated and that is the Concern of the OP For me, time to move on as once again we can go round and round in circles and not answer the Question, which really was, should this Doctor call for Tests for TB?

chris49 Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 You are right we did not get around to answering the OP, on the original topic. I guess someone could have asked the Dr directly? Or if that is difficult, he could ask some member of the household. We will not know otherwise. You are right we did not get around to answering the OP, on the original topic.
