Abstract

In "Everything is Tuberculosis," author John Green assesses the intricacies of the communicable condition, TB, as a source of significant morbidity and mortality globally over centuries. Despite available vaccines, treatments, and protocols, tens of millions are infected and over a million persons will die from TB in 2025 alone. In searching for answers to mitigate this global scourge, however, Green looks past a key factor - specifically the role of law - as a primary tool for prevention and control.

在《一切都是结核病》一书中，作者约翰·格林（John Green）评估了结核病这种传染性疾病的复杂性。几个世纪以来，结核病一直是全球发病率和死亡率的重要来源。尽管有现有的疫苗、治疗方法和方案，但仅在2025年就有数千万人感染结核病，100多万人将死于结核病。然而，在寻找减轻这一全球灾难的答案时，格林忽略了一个关键因素——特别是法律的作用——作为预防和控制的主要工具。
