Has anybody seen any reports of health issues, yet?

I saw a post on this thread yesterday afternoon about some rescue workers being evac'd due to infection/sickness from wading in the sludgy water, but nothing since.

We should be getting close to the incubation time on some of those nasty bugs, I would think.

WDSU - healthcare volunteers said they saw no one with a wound that was not infected, in Miss. I think near Biloxi, but I honestly don't recall if it was Biloxi or Gulfport.

Right.

And the dead animals, too.

Heard a guy from a help line state, "this elderly women called and said she went out on the porch with her little dog and he jumped into the water and got eaten by an alligator." That was on Fox News Radio.
