Syrian refugees are a health hazard to US by bringing flesh-eating leishmaniasis disease
Fellowship Of The Minds ^ | 12/26/2015 | Dr. Eowyn

Despite the fact that the FBI had admitted that they don't have the database to vet Syrian "refugees" being brought to the U.S., on December 18, 2015, the traitorous Republican-majority Congress approved of the omnibus spending bill H.R. 2029 that fully funds the "refugee" program, as well as Planned Parenthood, climate change, and amnesty for illegals. (See "Betrayal: GOP funds Planned Parenthood, Syrian 'refugees' and amnesty for illegals")

But the problem isn't just that Muslim jihadists are among those "refugees". It turns out that Syrian "refugees" are also bringing into this country a terrible flesh-eating disease called cutaneous leishmaniasis. In fact, the federal government's Centers for Disease and Control (CDC) published an article about this more than a year ago.

In the October 2014 issue of the CDC's EID Journal, an article titled "Ongoing Epidemic of Cutaneous Leishmaniasis among Syrian Refugees, Lebanon" says:

(Note: footnotes are omitted in the excerpts below; words colored green are mine)

Leishmaniasis is a parasitic disease comprising a wide spectrum of chronic infections in humans and in certain animal species.... Leishmaniasis is a major public health concern in the eastern Mediterranean region, which bears the brunt of the worldwide prevalence (≈57%), and is endemic to 16 of the 23 countries in this region, and Afghanistan, Iraq, and the Syrian Arab Republic are among the hot spots of leishmaniasis.

The 3 major forms of leishmaniasis (cutaneous, mucocutaneous, and visceral) are transmitted by the bite of the female sandfly.... Aleppo [the largest city in Syria] is one of the most cutaneous leishmaniasis-endemic areas in the world; ≈12,000 new cases occur each year. We have documented a cutaneous leishmaniasis outbreak among Syrian refugees within the Lebanese borders that began in September 2012 and is ongoing....

Most (77%) patients reported the appearance of the first lesion after being in Lebanon for >2 months [which means infected people are symptomless in the beginning stage!], and 53% of patients recalled history of an antecedent insect bite....

Fifty-nine percent of patients had >1 of the following: disease compromising the function of vital sensory organs (eye, ear, nose, and mouth) (27%); lesions >5 cm in diameter (49%); disfiguring facial lesions (37%); special forms, such as sporotrichoid or lymphangietic with satellite lesions (9%); and lesions present for >12 months' duration (9%) [see Figure 2 below]

Figure 2. Patterns of leishmaniasis among Syrian refugees in Lebanon, 2012. A, B) Lesions impinging and possibly hindering the function of vital sensory organs, including the nose and eyes. C, D) Lesions >5 cm.E, F) Lesions disfiguring the face. G, H) Special forms of cutaneous leishmaniasis; shown here is a patient with spread and satellite lesions on the hand and arm. I, J) Patient with 15 lesions. (Source: CDC)

Aaron Klein reports for Breitbart, Dec. 20, 2015, that according to the peer-reviewed medical journal Pathogens, ''L''An article in the UK's Mirror of Dec. 4, 2015, reports that "health experts" say that ISIS or Islamic State militants are spreading leishmaniasis, "a flesh eating bug across war-torn Syria" as a result of their "slaughtering innocent people and dumping their bodies in the street."

Breitbart continues:

Health agencies confirmed that Syrian refugees have transported leishmaniasis to Lebanon and Turkey, where it has been difficult to manage and treat.

Compounding the problem, patients can be infected with ''''<''Cutaneous [leishmaniasis] is the most common form among Syrians. It manifests in skin sores ''Here's a pic of a volcano-like cutaneous leishmaniasis ulcer (warning: gruesome!):

Mucocutaneous leishmaniasis causes skin ulcers like the cutaneous form''<, ''<''Visceral leishmaniasis, which has also been found among Syrian refugees, is the most serious form and can be fatal. It damages internal organs, usually the spleen and liver, and also affects bone marrow.

For the names of the 150 Republicans in the House of Reps. who voted for HR 2029, the omnibus spending bill that fully funds the "resettlement" of Syrian "refugees" to the U.S., click here.

And if you still support the GOP by donating money and voting for this traitorous party, you are complicit in bringing leishmaniasis to America -- a horrible disease that especially afflicts children.

The traitor in the White Hut has already announced and put into action his scheme to overrun this nation with these disease-carrying Muslims. He wants to be as popular as Frau Merkel. We cannot stand for this even though our complicit Congress will.

Diseases and parasites are making their way into our country and many here have no or little immunity to fight them.

Now, finding this and other diseases and parasite that are prevalent, such as one called Kissing Disease, makes it more important to pay attention.

If Obama gets his way our hospitals will be teeming with the hordes unleashed by the foreign aid student.

Conservatives need to wake up and end this RINO bs.

The Terrorist in Chief thinks he and his family are immune from these diseases. All it takes is one infected person preparing his burger or picking lettuce in Moo’s garden or them shaking an infected hand and it would be a matter of time before it’s passed to their daughters.

CURSES ON A NATION THAT TURNS FROM GOD (Deuteronomy 28:15-68)
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Deuteronomy+28%3A15-68&version=GNT

Excerpt...
58 If you do not obey faithfully all of God’s teachings that are written in this book and if you do not honor the wonderful and awesome name of the Lord your God,

59 he will send on you and on your descendants incurable diseases and horrible epidemics that can never be stopped.

60 He will bring on you once again all the dreadful diseases you experienced in Egypt, and you will never recover.

61 He will also send all kinds of diseases and epidemics that are not mentioned in this book of God’s laws and teachings, and you will be destroyed.

Allah blesses his nations with the greatest of technology shrouded in the cloak of modernity.

We should all be Allah’s followers.

We can only hope! - that the current ‘1st couple’, aka the usurper and his spouse get eaten alive by this disease!

Quick, send the Syrian refugees to the WH where the compassionate usurper is so not afraid of the ‘orphans’ from Syria!

Muslims were creators of modern civilization and invention.

In 1802, Azziz Muhadeen invented the condom. He ingeniously used the lower intestine of a goat. His invention remained until 1888, when Sir John Longhorsely improved the invention by removing the lower intestine from the animal.

How clever are these Muslims. Especially when one considers the intellect of the occupant of the White Hut. All he needs is a jar of Vaseline....and he’s happy.

Mooch-hell uses Snap On Tools, a trick she learned from Hillary Clinton to bring a smile to the face of her hubby.

(Reminds him of the good old days)
