Health For All
Tuberculosis and Older People
One widespread but danger¬
ous allacy about tuberculosis is
that older people do not get the
disease because it occurs pri¬
marily among the young.
It is true that tuberculosis is
the leading cause of death
from disease among young
adults between the ages of 15
and 34. Yet the proportion of
deaths from tuberculosis
among Americans over 45 years
of age has been steadily in¬
creasing in the past few years.
In 1947, the year for which
we have the most recent fig¬
ures, for the first time more
than half the persons who died
pf tuberculosis in this country
were over 45.
This fact does not necessarily
mean that people over 45 are
more susceptible to tuberculo¬
sis than younger people The
larger number of deaths, in
comparison with other age
groups, may be explained by the
fact that people are living longer
today and that tuberculosis
treatment is more effective to¬
day than it was 20 years ago.
Moreover, the decrease in deaths
from tuberculosis has been rapid
among the young than among
the older age groups.
But the number of deaths
from tuberculosis among people
over 45 does prove that no age
is safe from the disease —that
reaching the age of 45 does not
mean a person has “outgrown’
the possibility of getting tuber¬
culosis.
Hence, those who think they
no longer need take precautions
against tuberculosis or check on
the health of their lungs be¬
cause they are 45 year of age or
over are taking foolish and un¬
necessary chances.
Regular physical examinations
including chest X-rays, are im¬
portant for all adults, no matter
what age group. The disease has
no obvious symtoms in an ear:
stage, but periodic medical exa¬
minations and chest X-rays gi ve
a person his best chance of de¬
tecting the disease, if it strikes,
in a stage when it is easiest to
cure.
