INDIO, Calif.-

SHHS staff are working in conjunction with county health officials to determine what staff, faculty, and students may have come in direct contact with the student diagnosed with active tuberculosis.

The student is currently undergoing treatment will not return to school until a medical clearance is issued. The student is expected to recover.

The health department is advising anyone who may have been exposed to the disease to be screened with a tuberculosis skin test. Skin tests will be administered during a clinic which will be held at the high school in August.

....Indio is a city in Riverside County, California, United States, located in the Coachella Valley of Southern California’s Colorado Desert region......

Hmmmm.....when will these over privileged libs get the hint. Diseases are crossing our southern border into their schools/doctors offices/grocery stores/etc.

State ran by Democrats? Democrat policy problems!

Also, shame on their local Republicans for not showing up for the fight against the leftist tyranny.

There are reasons why students need medical clearances before they can attend school.

Good for these Californians who insist on voting the wrong way every time. I hope they’re happy. I won’t be happy until the grandchildren of Pelosi and Feinstein suffer parasite infestations, TB, and typhoid.

Surmising that the student is an undocumented Democrat, wasn't the studently medically tested for things like TB when admitted through the people’s southern border wall that House Democrats and RINOs up for reelection in 2020 have wholeheartedly supported? /sarc

Who clears them,their own MD or does a school doctor do it?

(It’s been YEARS since my kids were in school so I don’t remember.)

a state licensed medical doctor

Thanks. TB could be present and undetected,though.

It’s hard to believe that we all thought that this was virtually eradicated in the USA.

I would guess tb tests are pretty common for school enrollment.
