May 15, 2019: A Conversation With Donna Bean From Public Health Nursing

In this show we are joined by Donna Bean and Evelina Achee, both public health nurses, and Dr. Bruce Chandler from Anchorage as they discuss tuberculosis, commonly known as TB, in the region. They look at the history of TB as well as the signs and symptoms, and how TB is still affecting the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta today. If you think you may have TB, or if you think you have come in contact with someone who has TB, visit the Alaska Public Health building here in Bethel or in Anchorage. You can also call Alaska Public Health at 907-543-2110.
