Crap! I made it too easy by using House's pic. It was the title of a Season Two episode on Tuberculosis. TB or not TB. I'll have to make my questions harder.

[bowenw]

"To be, or not to be"
From William Shakespeare's play Hamlet:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/To_be,_or_not_to_be

[Daniela1982]

Well of course, that would be the obvious guess.

[bowenw]

Do I get brownie points?

[Daniela1982]

That was what I expected someone to say which means it isn't the correct answer.

[bowenw]

Shame. 😢

Is it referring to the episode of House by that name?

[Daniela1982]

Could be.

[bowenw]

I will wait for the final results.

[bowenw]

It's the name of the House episode plus a play on the phrase from Hamlet.

[Daniela1982]

True.

[bowenw]

Thank you for the MHO! 😊

Tuberculosis or not tuberculosis

[Daniela1982]

Did you get that from my update or on your own?

[Lyndsielee666]

I didn’t even read the update I just answered from the main page 😂

[EaterPeter]

It has something to do with House? Doctors, Hospitals, Diseases?

[EaterPeter]

Tuberculosis or it has something to do with COVID

[Daniela1982]

Your first choice.

[EaterPeter]

Got it

[EaterPeter]

Thanks for like!

TB or not TB, that is consumption. To cough, cough...

That was a mnemonic my dad used from when he was a kid.

[Daniela1982]

I've never known anyone who has had Tuberculosis, but I guess that is good.

[Lonewulf57]

In my dad's day, TB was more common. I went to college and roomed with a guy from North Korea. He had TB and he was given free drugs by the US, but he didn't have to take them. That would have been against his rights as a non-citizen.
As a citizen, I had no rights and HAD to get a whole bunch of shots. Also, I guess his rights to an education surpassed my rights to know my roommate had TB. I only found out after a year of bunking with him.

[Daniela1982]

That has been the deal with illegal immigrants who were shipped all over the US with no tests or vaccinations.

To be or not to be?
Life may not be fair, but death could be much worse. This was the question posed to Hamlet in Shakespeare's play Hamlet. To live or to die.

[Surely]

I thought that answer was way too easy to be the correct one!

[Daniela1982]

Well that was the general idea but they caught on too fast.

[Massageman]

Tuberculosis. Finally something I tested negative on.

[PeterCharlie1991]

Tuberculosis or as id say it stands for two beauties

[msc545]

Shakespeare - "To be or not to be - that is the question".

[Citizenkirk]

To be, or not tuberculosis?

[Elliegirl]

Have or do not have tuberculosis

[NathanDavis]

the tuberculous granuloma...

[motownplayer2000]

Well, that is the question.. huh?

[Daniela1982]

It was but not the answer.

[motownplayer2000]

Lol I tried 😂😂

[Daniela1982]

Did you read any of the other answers or my update? I just gave them too good a clue. :(

[motownplayer2000]

I just did. I don’t watch house so that’s why I didn’t get it lol

[motownplayer2000]

Or whatever that show is called

I figured Tuberculosis was too easy since that was my first guess so I changed it to something else

[Daniela1982]

Well it could work too but you were right about Tuberculosis.

[Sevenpointfive]

i would've gotten it

[Jerre]

TB = Tuberculosis
