I recently published a piece for PlusNews about the Tuberculosis epidemic that has long been endemic in Haiti and could worsen with the living situations of over a million Haitians still living in tents ten months after the January 12 earthquake. As with most issues in post-quake Haiti, the earthquake merely brought to light and worsened an already volatile situation. I have met some impressive people working on TB in Haiti, but the epidemic they are up against is proving to be bigger than they can contain.
