Yes it is. The experts on FR assure me I have to drink the patient’s blood while dancing the Charleston under a full moon... and only then I have a 50-50 chance.

Maybe he should have checked with the fraud in chief about that one, after all, he said there was a very small chance it would get here in the first place. More than one case would seem to make that statement somewhat incorrect.
Check the NIS for info on this threat. Bet it is there too but Obola was too busy to read it.

What have you done to change to change those odds? I just contacted my reps via the Internet and will follow up later with phone calls.

Its not transmitted by mosquito. If it were Africa would have ceased to exist thousands of years ago.
