A Breath of Fresh Air: To Fight TB, Open a Window

According to recent news article from Scientific America, fighting TB is as simple as opening a window. Researchers in Peru found that good ventilation helps prevent spread of TB in hospitals.

WHO also recommends natural ventilation as one way to limit spread of TB. So next time when you see someone cough near you, just open the window.
