"It's a fact 80% of filipinos have inactive tuberculosis...TB here is worse than AIDS in Africa."
"Anyway, if you go to a doctor here they seem more interested in pushing a medication on you and getting you out of the office instead of listening to what your problems are. So many times I have gone into a doctors office thinking they would ask me whats wrong only to do a check up and give me some meds I don’t need."

"Another alarming fact: An estimated 80 percent of Filipinos have latent TB. Because of the huge TB burden in the country, most of us already have the so-called “latent TB.” Yes, that in all likelihood means you and me. In this condition, we already have the TB infection in our bodies, but the TB is still in the inactive state. Hence, we feel no symptoms and we are not contagious to other people. Some countries, like the US, will treat those with latent TB with medicines. But we can’t help it because we are born in the Philippines. We just need to observe a healthy lifestyle, or else the TB infection might get reactivated."
