The fifth and final blog in our World TB Day series comes from Tom Maguire in the form of a photo story from his recent trip to Romania. Â During two weeks in December, Tom visited hospitals, sanatoriums and prisons to meet with drug-resistant TB patients and the doctors and nurses assisting them with their treatments. These photos of some of the people he met visualise both the severity of the treatment and the loneliness and isolation that many patients feel being away from their loved ones whilst completing treatment that can last up to 2 years.
