Introduction
“We have a unique historic opportunity to stop Tuberculosis, but we must act now. The challenge now is for people to work together in putting the plan into action, in order to stop one of the oldest and most lethal diseases known to humanity. This plan tells the world exactly what we need to do in order to defeat this global killer.”

Tuberculosis has been present in humans since antiquity. The earliest unambiguous detection of “mycobacterium tuberculosis” is in the remains of bison dated 18,000 years before the present. Whether tuberculosis originated in cattle and then transferred to humans, or diverged from a common ancestor infecting a different species, is currently unclear. However, it is clear that “M.Tuberculosis” is not directly descended from “M.bovis”, which seems to have evolved relatively recently.
Skeletal remains from a Neolithic Settlement in the Eastern Mediterranean show prehistoric humans (7000BC) had TB, and tubercular decay has been found in the spines of mummies from 3000-2400BC. Phthisis is a geek terms for tuberculosis; around 460
