I think they did put everyone outside for the fresh air when they had TB. Shocking really but at the time that was what they thought would do the most good!

However I used to get a letter every year from some government agency up until I was 25 requiring me to go for an x-ray. If I didn't I would get fined.

I remember patients being wheeled out to face the English channel, in their beds - poor buggers.<br />I believe it is now being turned into rather posh apartments<br />J fabriquefantastiquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12455177942688723902noreply@blogger.com
