Groom Under Federal Quarantine

The problem is that TB, while not particularly contaigous, is a slow indolent infection that can remain dormant for years. Many people are exposed but do not develop TB because they develop immunity. Some are exposed and only develop active disease years later.

The major problem with this strain is it's resistance to treatment. Normal TB is treated with two or three different medications for a period of 9 months. Thats how hard the normal TB is to kill.

TB is particularly dangerous in immune compromised individuals. It's common in the prison system and in many South East Asian countries.

He likes to fly so phuking much, stick him on the shuttle that's going up in a few days and kick his ass out the door.

I'm getting more pissed the more I hear his (and his father's/father-in-law's) bullsh!t on the news.

Seems kind of odd that all of the excuses are being made for him and no mention of his wife, her immediate family, or others who would have spent quite a bit of time in close proximity to him. I think I am going to sue for the mental stress of having to read this crap about Poor Him.

Hardly the same situation... Last time I checked, AIDS is spread via shared bodily fluids, needles, etc.
If you could get AIDS by sitting within a few rows of someone, they'd have closed the most of the airports in the world.

You are correct, I guess I did not clairfy my statement.......seems to me and I could be wrong, but the guy they suspect that was the originater of the Aids virus was an airline pilot and or he jet setted all over the place and was suspected of infecting many people in many places, that's how it was spread the way it was........again, maybe my imagination, but it seems I remember something to that effect..........
