Mystery Disease Spreads Fear, Grief in Bangladesh

GOALANDO, Bangladesh (Reuters) - A mystery disease that has killed at least 14 people in Bangladeshi villages is spreading grief and fear but one doctor treating victims said Tuesday the outbreak might have peaked.

A mother in one village wept as she told how her two sons had been quickly struck down by the disease, which authorities believe is not the bird flu sweeping many other parts of Asia.

"I lost them within 48 hours, before I could do anything to save them. I did not know they might be infected by a deadly disease," said Asma Begum in Goalando village, 75 miles southwest of the Bangladeshi capital, Dhaka.

Government health officials say the disease has broken out in a string of villages in northern and southwestern districts, killing at least 14 people. Newspapers put the death toll at 19.

Nearly 60 people have caught the sickness, a disease control official in Dhaka said.

But experts have said the disease, which produces high fever, headache, vomiting and spells of unconsciousness, is like nothing they have seen. Samples have been sent to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control for analysis.

Dr Jahangir Hossain, an expert at the International Center for Diarrhoeal Diseases Research, Bangladesh, said the "symptoms suggest the disease could be encephalitis."

UNDER CONTROL?

Doctors at a hospital in Goalando village said they had treated dozens of people with symptoms of the mystery disease over the past week. "One has died, 16 are still in being treated while the others have gone home," said Dr. Sakhawat Ali.

Ali said the worst of the outbreak might be over.

"The situation seems to be under control now as we are not getting new patients," he said.

Adding on to Continental #17 from Glasgow, Fox just reported that flight could not get security clearance. Maybe it's the air marshall thing or the manifest (names)

[windchime]

I would NEVER kid about something like that. I came to this thread to see if there was any information and to register the occurrence.

We usually go to Gasparilla so was unfamiliar with the noise it causes in the neighborhood. It is the celebration of the invasion of Tampa by the pirate, Jose Gaspar. Events last for a couple of weeks. Parades, pirate ships invading the city from the bay with cannon fire..it's usually later in February. Glad that's all the explosions were!

Continental did not get clearance because of suspicions of a radiological device being on board.

[Letitring]

Oh, me too, so glad it's a celebration. Sounds like alot of fun. I've never heard of it. Mardi Gras parades and things like that are going on a bit South of me. :)

[oceanview]

you miss my point, the people who would be selling are americans who have been tipped in advance that the government knows a WMD attack is imminent and it cannot be stopped. its not the saudis I am talking about, its the top wall street people with washington DC connections.

[oceanview]

they are trying to switch to other flights now, other airlines.

[oceanview]

where are you getting that from?

[cmsgop]

Whoa! Where did you here that?

[varina davis]

Well, that was a bit unnerving, what with all that's going on tonight! We heard a couple of fairly loud (though dull) booms and the power went out three times.

That, along with all the unusual air traffic tonight, is a bit disconcerting, especially with a nuke plant not too far away.

I like when you post jstolzen; you are being cautious and smart even though you are skeptical at the same time. You always make me chuckle because I remember one of your posts about your wife not being as concerned or interested as you are about the threats. I think most of us have at least one loved one like that. By the way, how does your wife feel about the 70 gallons of water?!

Second caller claims responsibility for Ohio shootings. I only post it because he makes a threat about tomorrow.

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,110050,00.html

On the tape, the caller sounds like he has a deep voice, and says he was committing the shootings because the police have "corrupted the world."

He tells the dispatcher, "Tomorrow, the whole world will see our highways."

"They will?" the dispatcher asks.

The caller responds, "They will see my impact. Tomorrow, live."

" The organization of a naval SPETSNAZ brigade reflects its emphasis on sea infiltration, with up to three frogman battalions, one parachute battalion, and a minisubmarine battalion..."

Raised my eyebrows...prime opportunities don't waltz by so often with all the coves on the Sound. Of course having watched the movie "The Russians Are Coming" last weekend prepped me;)

[Letitring]

Where are you Varina?

"Tahiya and her sisters will be the tool that will bring all of Islam a just and lorious victory over the Satanic non-believers. yada yada yada..."

Oh that...That is probably the suprise half-time entertainment.

[oceanview]

is every kook jumping onto this muslim calendar thing now.

[WestCoastGal]

Where did that information come from? It does seem all the feds are talking about recently is radiological bombs so there must be something they know that we have already guessed here.
