Tuberculosis (abbreviated as TB for Tubercle Bacillus. ) is a common and deadly infectious disease that is caused by mycobacteria, primarily Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Tuberculosis most commonly affects the lungs (as pulmonary TB) but can also affect the central nervous system, the lymphatic system, the circulatory system, the genitourinary system, bones, joints and even the skin. Over one-third of the world's population now has the TB bacterium in their bodies and new infections are occurring at a rate of one per second. Not everyone who is infected develops the disease and asymptomatic latent TB infection is most common. However, one in ten latent infections will progress to active TB disease which, if left untreated, kills more than half of its victims. In 2004, 14.6 million people had active TB and there were 8.9 million new cases and 1.7 million deaths, mostly in developing countries.
Yup. That's exactly what it is - a killer infectious disease... And I was forced to leave my workplace the instant my employer informed me about it.
But with God's sovereignty, He can just turn every evil and bad thing for the good, of course, just for those who believe in Him. And that's what just happened to me, he turned that disease, into an opportunity for me to rest, do other things, have fun, and... I got a better job.
