Who would have thought ANA convention as a public health hazard ???? Hmmm..... Most of the Nepalese are exposed to TB pathogens and test positive with Tuberculin test (Montoux). IF some Nepali may have active tuberculosis, is it possible that TB may be transmitted to young kids who have not been vaccinated with TB and travel abroad, when exposed to big Nepali mass that too in the closed environment? BTW I did test postive with tuberculin test 8mm (new guidelines) and took preventive medications.
