Instant #1 New York Times bestseller! ¿ #1 Washington Post bestseller! ¿ #1 Indie Bestseller! ¿ USA Today Bestseller! 'Earnest and empathetic.' - New York Times Tuberculosis has been entwined with hu­manity for millennia. Once romanticized as a malady of poets today tuberculosis is seen as a disease of poverty that walks the trails of injustice and inequity we blazed for it. In 2019 author John Green met Henry Reider a young tuberculosis patient at Lakka Government Hospital in Sierra Leone. John be­came fast friends with Henry a boy with spindly legs and a big goofy smile. In the years since that first visit to Lakka Green has become a vocal advocate for increased access to treatment and wider awareness of the healthcare inequi­ties that allow this curable preventable infec­tious disease to also be the deadliest killing over a million people every year. In Everything Is Tuberculosis John tells Henry's story woven through with the scientific and social histories of how tuberculosis has shaped our world-and how our choices will shape the future of tuberculosis.
