[CE]Europe's tuberculosis spreading fast

"Infections are resistant to first-line and then second-line antibiotic treatments - are spreading fast, with about 440,000 new patients every year around the world."

Science has always been an interest of mine. I'm pretty much horrible at memorization, which is pretty much required. Almost anything that has to do with science interests me, if it doesn't get into too much detail. I was just scrolling through the Al Jazeera posts because all of the stuff looked really uninteresting to me. Things about winning crucial votes, sex abuse, and arms smuggling don’t really interest me much.

                In this day and age, I would not have expected any diseases to be able to spread so much. With all the technology we have, all the high tech instruments, the medical treatments we have, the doctors, surgeons, medicines. All these things that we have to help us combat anything that tries to hurt our body. I would never expect something like tuberculosis to spread in Europe. Especially London, the capital of England has the highest TB rate of all the capital cities in Western Europe. I find it unnerving from the fact that even though TB is an old disease, we are still so susceptible to it. There are treatments for it, but the scary part is that these treatments are less and less effective because of evolution. Evolution was good for us, but when evolution happens to things like bacteria, it can have devastating consequences for humans. Scientists will probably run out of ways to fight off certain diseases as they start to evolve and become more resistant to the cures we have. I think that this is the way the human race will become extinct.
