Palma.Yesterday, the Minister for Health, Marti Sansaloni, did confirm that another case of tuberculosis was being treated but refused to give any further information about where the patients live in order to avoid causing any public alarm. This second case comes just weeks after an illegal Senegalese immigrant, Alpha Pam, died from the illness in a national health hospital in Palma.
