TB kills 2.1 million a year in the US

Uh... no it doesn't. There were 9,025 reported cases in 2018, and 515 deaths in 2017. It did kill around 1.5 million worldwide per the 2018 stats. India leads the count, followed by China and some other countries with less than great conditions. TB cases in the US are primarily from foreigners from those same countries. 'Asians' account for 35% of TB cases here.

I cannot go by the CDC numbers. They're in bed with WHO. They almost got me killed in Eastern Africa. They lied about Ebola spreading across the country and aren't a source I'd ever say is accurate.
