HTML:<b>John Green, the #1 bestselling author of <i>The Anthropocene Reviewed</i> and a passionate advocate for global healthcare reform, tells a deeply human story illuminating the fight against the world’s deadliest infectious disease.<br /></b><br /> <i>“This highly readable call to action could not be more timely.”</i> –Kirkus, <i>starred review<br /> “Memorably probes the intersections of medicine and human emotion.” –</i>Bookpage<i>, starred review</i><br /> Tuberculosis has been entwined with humanity for millennia. Once romanticized as a malady of poets, today tuberculosis is seen as a disease of poverty that walks the trails of injustice and inequity we blazed for it.<br /> In 2019, author John Green met Henry Reider, a young tuberculosis patient at Lakka Government Hospital in Sierra Leone. John became fast friends with Henry, a boy with spindly legs and a big, goofy smile. In the years since that first visit to Lakka, Green has become a vocal advocate for increased access to treatment and wider awareness of the healthcare inequities that allow this curable, preventable infectious disease to also be the deadliest, killing over a million people every year.<br /> In <i>Everything Is Tuberculosis</i>, John tells Henry’s story, woven through with the scientific and social histories of how tuberculosis has shaped our world—and how our choices will shape the future of tuberculosis.
