Incredibly grateful to Tye for sharing his TB story & his insights on the stigma he & his family experienced due to infectiousness fears, mental health impact of isolation, need for education & family centered counselling, and building a foundation of trust & equity in TB care 🙏🏾
Yesterday #WeAreTB ‘s Tye did a great job sharing his experience being treated for #tuberculosis in TX w/his representatives, including the offices of @SenTedCruz @ColinAllredTX & @JohnCornyn - thank you for meeting with Tye! #TBfreeUSA
