Extensively drug-resistant TB is a new world-wide threat to human health. It can be carried by asymptomatic hosts who are still infectious, and communicate the disease.

The Al-J channel had a story on this today, but I found a BBC link (there's an icon on my browser) from their correspondent in Geneva:

Apparently this has caught the WHO by surprise; it's a result of poorly administered antibiotics and disease treatment, surprise surprise.

Coming to your place anytime soon.
