Box 170 Boardman, Oregon 97818 481-9474 481-7351 New Problems With Treating Tuberculosis About a year ago officials at the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) reported a dramatic increase in the number of newly reported cases of tuberculosis (TB) in the United States. About 8 million people world wide are now infected with Myco- baterium tuberculosis , the bacteria that causes TB. Almost 3 million people die each year from this dis ease. A major concern of public health officials is the recent out break of infections that are resistant to standard TB medicines. A 1991 New York City survey indicated that one-third of all cases were resis tant to one of the currently available TB medicines. Almost 20 percent were resistant to isoniazid and rifampin , two of the most effective TB medicines. In addition, many patients are becoming reinfected because drug treatments have not lasted long enough. A third problem has been an increase in the number of cases o f TB that complicate the treatment of patients with AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syn drome). An approach to the continuing problem of drug resistance is to use five to six drugs in the patient until lab tests show which drugs have the most promise. Some physicians then recommend a minimum of three drugs given over a period of two years. The U.S. Food and Drug A dm inistration is encouraging manufacturers to develop new drugs for TB by offering to speed up the approval of such medicines. —i Bridal Tables 1993 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royal 4dr Bobbette Angell & Patrick Lovgren _______ Wedding - July 31_______ Teri Piper & Greg Lynch Wedding - August 14 M umjm thug Jim Barratt with Charles Russell painting Heppner native Jim Barratt of Corvallis and his wife Dorotha have donated a Charlie Russell western painting to the Willow Creek G olf C lub’s annual couples' tournament to be held INC IT N o rth M a m Heppner 6 7 6 91SH INTRODUCING THE ALL ★ Wide SfttlBtlfs ★ Ultsf in II was 5 years ago we introduced the Z 800 our 60.000 mile tire We sold over 2 m*on with tantas tic results— tremenoous customer satistaction Now. today I'm proud to introduce the alt new Z-800 PLUS In my mind, this is the best radial tire made in the world today II s why we give it our new 80 000 owe guarantee Try a set lor » days It you don t agree— return etn we ll give your money back August 7 and 8.
