Jackson County health officials are concerned that tuberculosis could be the "hot" in the county

Jackson, MI – It was identified as one of the deadliest diseases in the world.The symptoms may not show for two years. And infects the stigma and isolation, the properties of being with tuberculosis bears sometimes be more difficult than the disease itself.

The last case of active tuberculosis were reported in Jackson County in 2011. There are no known cases of active TB nelcontea, but Jackson County Health Department officials have preoccupazioniche bacteria that leads to active TB may be present.

“For every diagnosed case, there are probably 10 diagnosed,” said Ricciardello.

He said that the only way to stop the spread of tuberculosis, is to educate the community.

Tuberculosis is a communicable disease that can spread through air, when the TB germs from one person to another cause. It is transmitted by droplets dalgola and lungs of people who have active disease.

It sonodue forms of the disease – latent and active. The latent form is not èinfettiva. TB bacteria are present but not actively developed nelforma. If left untreated, can in an active form that is very contagious, could have. The signs of the latent form can not presentarestessi for two years.

In 2008, a 51-year-old Jackson man eracon diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis, another active form of tuberculosis. Luiera unemployed, but had a large circle of friends. Once reported, county health officials had finoi for identification and tracing of contacts of people to stop the spread.

With several months of investigation identified 110 contacts from the Jackson County from the 2008 event. Of the 110 residents of county, 103 were skin test for tuberculosis.

Three tested positive for active TB.

More than half, 59 percent had positive skin tests show that the latenteforma of TB. Most of those who were diagnosed with latent eranotrattati for nine months with the drug isoniazid.

But not all were treated.

Ten contacts with latent denied treatment identified. Two, we have developed active TB within one year of being latently infected dalforma.

Identification is a long process. It took 2009-2010, to identify the contacts of the case 2008th

While the spread of the disease is a challenge for salutedipartimento is even more difficult if waste continues to spread and infettitrattamento disease in the community.

One of the active form of tuberculosis, infects a nurse from the health department, the patient must be careful taking this drug. This is denominatoDiretto Observed Therapy.

One of the contacts of the case 2008che tested positive active TB was to be home in a particolaremomento where to end a nurse and planned to administer the treatment took place.

The county paid him $ 20 per week and had him sign a contract under which he agreed to stay home.

“We want to call these incentives TB,” said Ricciardello.

Due to the nature of the disease, should infected people in the sense that they can not work out-of-the-home and under the law must take the “drugs, are isolated .

If nurses treat masks manage to take that filter 95 percent of respiratory particles.

In 2011 had a 45-year-old woman who had moved out of state just to Jackson County from testing for the active form of tuberculosis positive. conteaidentificati 44 contacts, of which 32 were employees. Out of the 32collaboratori was a positive for the latent form and cominciòfarmaci.

Both residents of the district in 2008 and 2011 cases had a history of drugs and alcohol. Here is where the stigma comes in.

Ricciardello said TB is more common in those who have lower socio-economicostato, but “it does in all business lines,” he said.

“Alcohol and drugs added to the stigma, but anyone can become infected “
