That's an absolute lode of rubbish, in the early 60s TB was virtually eradicated in this country, but we still had badgers even then, TB only started to become a problem again when immigration started from Asia.

That was Withnell hospital cashy, which became BHRV Health Authority Chest Unit, This was closed in around 1987 when all he services were transferred to the new chest unit at Queens Park Ward E3 In the 70s and 80s the only people diagnosed with TB were people who had come to live here from the far east where TB is still riff today

I agree with you jaysay, that is what I was trying to say, that it is nothing to do with the badgers and everything to do with immigration.

Oh you got that in before me John. I worked on E3 as a first year Student Nurse......would be 1974. I loved that ward, though it was hard/heavy physical work. Sister Clarke took a liking to me and I got absolutely brilliant reports from her.......the Nursing Officer, John Fletcher even offered me a job when I qualified, and this was only my second allocation.
