Compared to India, it's not as common in the US, but it still exists! They have good public health programs to keep it in check. ✨

No, actually, TB is not as common in the US as it is in many other parts of the world, including India. They have good control programs and better living conditions overall, which reduces its spread. So, you can be less worried there.

TB isn't as common in the US compared to many developing nations. Their healthcare system and public health initiatives keep it more controlled. While I love natural health, for actual diagnosis or concerns about TB, whether in US or India, seeing a medical doctor is the only way.

From what I've read and understood, TB prevalence in the US is much lower compared to countries like India. This points to the importance of public health and hygiene. For inner peace and immunity, pranayama always helps.

Beta, America mein toh cleanliness aur hawa paani ki vyavastha bahut achhi hai. Wahan TB itna common nahi hai jitna hamaare yahan. Achhi sehat ke liye saaf-suthra environment bahut zaroori hai. Thoda ghar ke nuskhe bhi immunity ke liye acche hain.
