I never heard tuberculosis called the "white plaque" before. Is this a new name they are trying to make a thing?

I assume they want to avoid calling it "tuberculosis" because everyone knows "tuberculosis" is imported along with third worlders and hasn't been a problem in the first world for ages, whereas "white plague" is scary and new and vaguely maligns Europeans, like a marvel villain.

>and hasn't been a problem in the first world for ages
don't mean to jeff cliff your response but there was a 10 million person outbreak just 10 years ago in 2016

here is a good PDF from that year from WHO https://iris.who.int/server/api/core/bitstreams/1ac60f...

edit: europe absolutely booty blasted lmfao

@graf @NeoDelorean @WWIII_ENJOYER yeah most cases of tb in the first world are brought as gifts by our lovely migrants from the third world

They are cooking some spicy antibiotic immune variants in their petri dish countries
