While Mandela was imprisoned during apartheid, he contracted tuberculosis (TB). This was in 1988, while he was in Pollsmoor Prison. Fortunately for him, drug-resistant TB did not yet exist and he was treated and cured within four months, before the disease could progress to the more dangerous advanced stages. The former president and anti-apartheid icon reached the ripe old age of 95 – a feat which few South Africans are able to manage. There seem to be only three major health problems he experienced:
- tuberculosis
- cataracts
- prostate cancer
