We traveled to Manhattan yesterday to show the movie, centerpiece of a TB Awareness Day sponsored by the great Bellevue Hospital and the New York University School of Medicine. Large attendance, excellent panel discussion, and wonderful hosts from Dr. William Rom's Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine Division. After the session, we were treated to a tour of the hospital's TB ward and learned of Bellevue's leading role, dating to 1903, in the American tuberculosis epidemic of the first half or the 20th century. A great day all around. Pictured here is the table set up in the hospital lobby -- plenty of educational materials.
