Researchers are using human remains from the ancient city of Jericho to study the evolution of tuberculosis. So far, the team out of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem has found evidence of TB on several sets of 6000+ year-old bones that were collected during the thirties, forties, and fifties. They are also looking for leprosy, leishmania and malaria.

The interaction between the twin pandemics of HIV and TB could soon become a "threat to global health security," particularly with the emergence of almost untreatable strains of TB, experts at a United Nations forum have said.

This is about an American association of physicial anthropologists meeting,which
mainly talk about the thesis "Tuberculosis Jumped From Humans to Cows, Not Vice Versa."
At the meeting, a DNA study of 10 species of mycobacteria showed that early humans were infected with strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which cause TB, long before they began herding cattle. That suggests that it was humans who transmitted the disease to bovids and other animals

Israeli researchers find that feeding nutrients to dormant bacteria gives them a one hour window in which to kill them with antibiotics.

Researchers in Colombia describe a new strategy for designing the next generation of synthetic vaccines that could lead to more effective treatments for fighting malaria, tuberculosis, AIDS and other infectious diseases. These conditions kill more than 17 million people around the world each year.

Drug-resistant tuberculosis is on the rise in much of the world, according to a World Health Organization (WHO) report released yesterday. The WHO estimates that of the 9 million new cases of tuberculosis each year, about 5% are resistant to the standard treatment
Tuberculosis exposure feared on India-to-U.S. flight

U.S. health officials are trying to track down 44 people who sat near a woman infected with a hard-to-treat form of tuberculosis aboard an airliner from India to determine whether they have been infected, authorities said on Friday.
TB-scarred Homo erectus skull found in Turkey

The article discusses the way in which TB affected migrating populations. According to the article, examination of this skull supports the idea that as dark-skinned hominids moved into areas where the sun was less intense, they found themselves deficient in vitamin D, which affected their bones and immune systems.
It also got a writeup in the New York Times.

Human Ancestor Preserved in Stone

A hugely important discovery was found by workers at a travertine factory near Denizli, Turkey. They sawed a block of the limestone for tiles and discovered part of a human skull. Researchers says that it appears to be a long-sought species of human that lived 500,000 years ago, however, the fossil also reveals the earliest case of tuberculosis (TB).
TB's presence might provide clues about what this early human looked like and how it adapted to new habitats
The evolution of a killer---tuberculosis
jane2007 submitted, created time 10 months 1 week (www.nature.com)
The work suggests that if better tuberculosis surveillance programmes had been in place during the past decade in developing countries, antibiotic treatments could have been better tailored to patients, and the emergence of extensively drug-resistant strains of tuberculosis (XDR-TB) could have been delayed.
This article narrates the history and the current status of the killer--- tuberculosis. I think the difficulty or the mission is in the text too.

CAPE TOWN, South Africa, Nov. 2 (UPI) -- Cape Town, South Africa, is among the worst cities in the region affected by a epidemic of HIV and drug-resistant tuberculosis.

Mycobacterium bovis bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is the most widely used live bacterial vaccine. However, limited information is available correlating route and dose of vaccination and induction of specific T cell responses with protection against tuberculosis.

The structure of a novel protein in the bacterium that is the most persistent pathogen in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients has been solved.
"Drug resistant" doesn't mean what it used to
Darkfrog submitted, created time 1 year 4 months (www.nytimes.com)
It means more. According to the World Health Organization, strains of drug-resistant tuberculosis show themselves more resistant to more kinds of drugs than even as late as 1994. The study is based on information collected in 2004.
