MSF website lends voice to TB patients

NewsGuard 100/100 Score

"Medecins Sans Frontieres, whose volunteer doctors run TB clinics around the world, has launched a website called TB and Me, where patients are regularly blogging on their experiences," Sarah Boseley writes in the Guardian's "Global Health Blog." Bloggers from Australia, India, Uganda, and Swaziland currently write for the site, which is meant to give people living with multi-drug resistant TB (MDR-TB) a voice and express their needs, she writes (6/30).
