WHOEVER THOUGHT THAT ALLOWING MILLIONS OF PEOPLE INTO THE USA FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD WITHOUT ANY HEALTH SCREENING WAS A GRAND IDEA???
Consumption hits California? What’s next? Ague, grippe, dropsy, lumbago? I thought we got rid of these 1800s conditions.
Well gee maybe that is what happens when you flood a state full of illegals for votes
I would love the see the disease tracking on these cases.
I think it’s a safe bet that the affected are illegals who brought it in.
World’s deadliest disease???
For several decades previous to our present open-borders era, it barely existed in the USA.
So what happened to bring it back???
Trumps’s fault of course.
Isn’t San Ysidro right on the Mexican border?
Thank you Jao BiXiden....
TB is rampant in China.
It got so bad in the 40s the government built sanutariums and quarantined those with it.
Very contagious.
Huge places with square miles of land. Totally self-sufficient. Farming, cattle, chicken, pigs.
One was in central west Arkansas just outside Booneville. Ark.
It closed in 1970.
Wow, TB is not just any infection. It takes months of advanced antibiotics. A stash of Cipro or Doxycillian isnt going to help if TB goes pandemic.
Don’t worry even though there are 200 cases, none of them is contagious. As far as students or staff, well it is mandatory to have a tuberculosis screening before you can be employed in a California public school and you have to be recertified every five years. The weakness in the screening system is that you can simply say you don’t have tuberculosis and they take your word for it.
In a related story, The People’s Republica of Kalifornia has ordered all school children be housed with the children already infected. A Kalifornia Apparatchik familiar with the situation stated that, in the name of equity, it would not be “fair” for only some of the children to contract the disease.
Not This...

It is highly likely that this is “ordinary” TB, not one of the drug-resistant varieties. A slow moving disease, they first try out the simplest antibiotics, then wait and look for dead bacteria. If no luck, they try the next strongest antibiotic, then wait, etc.
There has only been one known outbreak of Totally DR TB, in India, and it had a 100% mortality rate.
FR: Tuberculosis
Election year too.
TB is deadliest? I would have put my money on malaria.
The Newscum disease.
