Tuberculosis in America: The People's Plague chronicles a history that has influenced much of our modern public health policy. It is the story of a disease that, although highly curable and almost entirely preventable, has today returned to catch our country�s health care system off guard. This timely film informs every aspect of today�s health care debate, from delivery of service to cost containment, from disease prevention to social control. Part Two presents facts about the disease that survived its own death to confront us again at the close of the twentieth century.
