520 |a Two billion people worldwide are infected with the TB bacillus, but only 9 million people a year actually get the disease. The story of the Marshall Islands can help us understand why. The lives and health of Marshall Islanders in the equatorial Pacific were disrupted in a unique fashion when the United States occupied their nation and used their outer islands for extensive nuclear testing after World War II. Between 1946 and 1958, 67 atomic devices were detonated, the estimated yield equivalent to 1.7 Hiroshima blasts every day for 12 years. Their lands, culture, and traditional way of life destroyed, many Marshallese now crowd the island of Ebeye hoping to get a job at the U.S. base on nearby Kwajalein. Here, they face the worst of both the developing and industrialized worlds. Tuberculosis and other infectious diseases are fed by poverty and squalid conditions. Lack of economic opportunities and healthy food options, combined with the stress of dislocation and cultural loss, have also led to high rates of chronic illnesses like diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, obesity and cancer. Three miles away on Kwajalein, American contractors and their families enjoy a pleasant suburban environment. Health outcomes here are comparable to the U.S. Although more than 1,100 Marshallese work on Kwajalein, they're not allowed to live there and must commute by ferry to and from Ebeye, where power outages and sanitation issues are a continuing problem. Today, around 10,000 Marshall Islanders, seeking a better future, have ended up in the unlikely place of Springdale, Arkansas. But even though the Marshallese can leave the impoverished conditions of their homeland behind, they can't escape the effects of having lived in poverty. Rates of tuberculosis and other infectious diseases among Marshallese living in the U.S. are far above the national average. Chronic disease rates are also high. The health problems that Marshallese people experience today are the price they've paid to help the U.S. maintain a strategic military presence in the Pacific.
