IF these indviduals want to ruin their own lives that is fine, but TB, especialy the very contagious forms that are becoming more previlant, need to be treated and contained.

these people are a menace to society and need to be isolated if they REFUSE to follow their treatment schedule.

TB was all but eradicated in the US, it has made a massive resurgence in this country promarily due to unchecked ILLEGAL imigrants. They pose a great health risk to the general population.. They dont seek health care for a cough and night sweats and before you know it a whole family has TB and have spread around their community...

This is a VERY serious issue and I believe ANYONE who refuses their treatment should be either jailed untill completed or deported if they are illegally here.....
