Wow, Cindy, you are quick! :)

Eye infection misses U.S. bases in Germany (6 German Army bases closed due to virus -- UPDATE)

FINALLY an update on those 6 military bases in Germany closed for three weeks.

It's amazing how they were able to keep it out of the media.

"It is unclear how this virus has spread so quickly, Schmidt said. "

I wonder, is is possible that the US bases were better guarded, more alert, and whoever was trying to spread the virus couldn't get in?

It looks like soldiers at six German military bases were being infected simultaneously.

From the link posted by Squantos:

" ...uveitis can be a consequence of Feline Leukemia Virus (FELV), Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP), Feline Immunodeficiency Virus or Feline AIDS (FIV)"

This is ringing bells from several threads back..especially the Feline Leukemia Virus connection. Also the possibility of uveitis being a complication of another internal infection undiagnosed or diagnosed but unannounced raises my eyebrows.

Can a canine parvo virus cause uveitis?

Was any of the wahabist chatter about the "dog disease" WMD focused on military or was it a nonspecific?
