The premise sounds interesting, but it seems a bit reductionist if it boils down to that, no? Is the book looking at it through the lens of government actions or private charities? I'm not aware of any evidence that suggests charities simply stopped operating because of capitalism.

The book includes privates charities and governments, but looks at TB through many more lenses than just those. There is a reason it’s a whole book and not just a comment on an Internet forum. I just finished the book and highly recommend the read, if only to learn about something that I suspect most of us (myself at least, certainly), is known only as _history_, not the raging health crisis that is continues to be.

Sounds interesting, I'll add it to my list. Appreciate the response.
