内容简介:
数千年来,结核病一直与人类紧密相连。结核病曾被诗人浪漫地描述为一种疾病,而今天,它却被视为一种贫困疾病,沿着我们为其开辟的不公正和不公平之路前行。 2019年,作家约翰·格林(John Green)在塞拉利昂拉卡政府医院遇见了一位年轻的结核病患者亨利·雷德(Henry Reider)。
约翰很快就和亨利成为了好朋友,亨利是一个双腿细长、笑容灿烂、傻乎乎的男孩。自初次访问拉卡以来,格林一直积极倡导增加治疗机会,并更广泛地认识到医疗保健不公平现象,这种现象导致这种可治愈、可预防的传染病成为致命的疾病,每年导致超过一百万人死亡。在《一切都是结核病》中,约翰讲述了亨利的故事,并穿插了结核病如何影响我们的世界的科学和社会历史,以及我们的选择如何影响结核病的未来。
Tuberculosis has been entwined with hu?manity 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. In 2019, author John Green met Henry Reider, a young tuberculosis patient at Lakka Government Hospital in Sierra Leone.
John be?came 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 inequi?ties that allow this curable, preventable infec?tious disease to also be the deadliest, killing over a million people every year. In Everything Is Tuberculosis, 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.
