Scenario: Cardiovascular and Infectious Diseases From a Sudanese Lens
Baruti is a 67-year-old farmer from Sudan. He has been migrating to other farming communities over the last few years. He has reported a family history of coronary vascular disease, with most males in his family dying in their 40s and 50s. Since last week, he has been experiencing weight loss, chronic cough, night sweats, and bloody sputum. His tuberculosis test shows a positive diagnosis. He is presently living in a community with a low literacy rate and limited healthcare availability.
Additionally, read the Sudan: Tuberculosis on the Rise in Sudan report for additional perspective on the rise of tuberculosis in Sudan.
