As soon as my household found out about Chobani, it was forbidden for purchase.

Same here. Told the missus to buy something else.

Import illegals to work in plants in low-tax states, and the state gets to pay increased cost for TB and other disease outbreaks, as well as an increase in crime. Truly a lose/lose situation for taxpayers in rural America.

When you import people from cultures that see nothing wrong with defecating in public and don’t know about the advantages of washing their hands, expect exciting new diseases. Enjoy your yogart.

It has been Noosa ever since Yoplait decided 25% less sugar was a good thing. They threw in a sugar substitute that ruined the flavor, Thank heavens we found Noosa and a new world of great flavors that we mix with Dannon non fat plain to make them not nearly so expensive.

Fortunately, I suppose, almost all of the TB cases in the US from immigrants are “plain, vanilla” TB, with no antibiotic resistance.

If you are ‘exposed’ to TB, it means you have the bacteria in your body, but it has not yet turned active. It is treated with an antibiotic for about six months. If it has turned into an active form, you take different antibiotics for about a year and a half.

The reason treatment takes so long is that, unlike other bacteria that typically reproduce about every half hour, TB only reproduces once or twice a day.

TB is one of only two common Mycobacterium that infect humans. It’s cousin is leprosy and behaves much the same way.

Antibiotic resistant TB is determined by trial and error. That is, a stain must be used in a culture to determine if the TB bacteria are dead or still alive. If the first antibiotic fails to kill them, then the TB is a Drug Resistant or DR-TB. If additional antibiotics also fail, it is a Multiple, or MDR-TB. If *most* antibiotics also fail, it is an Extensive or XDR-TB.

Only twice have Completely or CDR-TB bacteria been discovered, both times in India. Those bacteria died out with every single person exposed to it.

In practical terms, mortality for TB, with treatment, is very low. There is a higher mortality for DR-TB, much higher for MDR-TB, and approaching 50% for XDR-TB.

However, the government will officially freak out with DR-TB or better, and put you under confinement until you get better or die.

Some enterprising soul needs to go get a huge order of labels printed so Chobani products can be properly (re)labeled as “Jihadi”.

It’s “truth in labeling”, after all.
