- Manuela: Because, I am going task
- Daniela: About what?
- Manuela: ABOUT tuberculosis
- Daniela : IT Sounds interesting! Please tell me more ABOUT IT...
- Manuela: I was investigating that Tuberculosis is a potentially serious infectious disease that
mainly affects the lungs. The bacteria that cause tuberculosis are spread from person to person
through tiny droplets released into the air via coughs and sneezes.
Once rare in developed countries, tuberculosis infections began increasing in 1985.

- Daniela: Oh ! It's very Cool. I Know something about that.

- Manuela: Wow, Do you know something about the history of the pandemic?
- Daniela :Well, one day I am reaDING something. I remember that : On March 24, 1882, Dr.
Robert Koch announced the discovery of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacteria that
causes tuberculosis.
During this time, TB killed one out of every seven people living in the United States and
Europe.

- Manuela: Oh! I did not know that tuberculosis was a historical event.
- Daniela: Yes, it WAS
- Manuela: You get What the symptoms are? DO YOU KNOW WHAT ARE THE
SYMPTOMS?
- Daniela: No, I don't Know
- Manuela: In a website, I found the information

● Coughing for three or more weeks

● Coughing up blood
● Chest pain, or pain with breathing or coughing
● Unintentional weight loss
● Fatigue
● Fever
● Night sweats
 ● Chills
● Loss of appetite

- Daniela: Wow! This epidemic is very similar to the Coronavirus

- Manuela: yes, your symptoms ARE very similar too
- Daniela: Of course, in fact the Fever and the Coughing are the symptoms in common.
- Manuela: Do you know how DID they control the contagion?
- Daniela: Let me see
- Manuela: Ok
- Daniela : Well, Look this page. Here say In 1882 , the doctors recommend follow these
indications :

● Stay home. Don't go to work or school or sleep in a room with other people during
the first few weeks of treatment.
● Ventilate the room. Tuberculosis germs spread more easily in small closed spaces
where air doesn't move. If it's not too cold outdoors, open the windows and use a fan
to blow indoor air outside.
● Cover your mouth. Use a tissue to cover your mouth anytime you laugh, sneeze or
cough. Put the dirty tissue in a bag, seal it and throw it away.

- Manuela: Oh!!! Perfect, this topic is very interesting!

- Daniela: Yes , Thanks for this conversation
