"Nobody is visiting me. Nobody is allowed here. And who would come to visit ? TB patients like me? Why would they? Everybody’s got problems of their own. Who am I for them? Nobody. My sister has a husband, and has grandchildren. So she won’t take risk of communicating with me. Why wouldn’t she visit me, her uncle? Everybody’s afraid of TB." Leonid. Intensive Care Unit (ICU), TB Institute, Misnk, Belarus, 2018
