From what I have seen and read, the French Quarter remains dry and intact. A question about unsanitary floodwaters has already been answered. The water is being drained. Insect-borne illness is nothing new.

Since I have been to the French Quarter and on Bourbon Street. You cannot convince me that there aren't any pathogens that can't be rejuvenated in the water. Every night was a party, everynight people peeing in the street and alleys, puke flowed and the place smelled just like Paris in the summer. Sorry, the disease is there

Now really. After we have moved 50,000 folks, who waded through all kinds of mess, to safety, all over the country; taken them into our cities and homes; and put their children next to ours in our schools from Maine to Washington, I'm supposed to be afraid of a few holdouts who were intelligent enough to prepare and have remained high and dry and want to remain in their own homes; now, after the fact, somehow leaping out of the city of New Orleans and spreading disease among all of us? Please. Get a grip and let's leave these independents to their own devices. We have more to fear from those armed "citizen soldiers" who would break down a door, unlawfully enter a home and unlawfully remove your personal property, especially your guns you very may well need to protect your self. (let'm try it at my house if they want another Ruby Ridge)
