Ingrid was young and starting her career as a dietician when two years of hospitalisation, injections and recovery which changed her life forever.
In this episode we focus on Tuberculosis, or TB, a disease with a long history in humans which is both curable and preventable but continues to kill 1.2 million people every year. It’s also got some pretty nasty resistant forms of the disease, which are becoming much more common especially in Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa.
Seen through the lens of Ingrid’s story, we find out how TB affects patients, where it is still a big problem and why there is much more to TB than science.
Featuring:
Ingrid Schoeman, Director of Advocacy and Strategy for TB Proof, a group started by health care who developed occupational TB and students passionate about TB prevention. She is also an extensively drug resistant TB survivor
Marcello Scopazzini, Clinical Fellow in Research at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and Infectious Diseases Specialist, researching the link between TB and cardiovascular diseases. He also appeared in our chorus of healthcare professionals in the Edinburgh Fringe run in 2022.
