This is a follow up to her exam in Manila, maybe there was something they wanted to confirm.

My wife had to go in for a test and 2nd chest x-ray. She passed with flying colors and the government covered the cost. When TB is involved, they want to be SURE no one enters infected or contagious.

And by the way, it saved us the trouble of her getting another chest x-ray when she started working at a nursing home.
