A 10th child died Wednesday night from adenovirus after an outbreak at a New Jersey long-term care center that has infected 27 medically fragile children, the state Health Department said. The death came as the outbreak entered its sixth week at the Wanaque Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation. A second outbreak, believed to be a different type of adenovirus, was confirmed Wednesday at the Voorhees Pediatric Center in Camden County. Four children have been affected in Voorhees with a milder form of illness, Shereef Elnahal, the state health commissioner, said. Preliminary tests indicated it was not the same type of the virus as has swept through the Wanaque center... All of the children infected in the two outbreaks have severely compromised immune systems, the Health Department said.

Two types of the same disease. Have they looked for the carrier/s among the staff?

Diseases brought in by uncontrolled immigration.

It appears the quartering of illegal aliens
with incurable diseases by Obama, Soros and the
CDC was a SUCCESS. So many deaths. So much success.

Something similar happened years ago - the culprit then was tainted meds.

My brother got the adenovirus from being in the VA hospital in Houston. He had to Google diagnose it himself because the doctors didn’t have a clue. This virus is very under reported.

The "Ministry of Diversity and Gender Equalization" did.

It’s happening all over the US.
Here in central TX, radio news is reporting multiple cases of polio like illness affecting children. Parent should be very cautious about where they take or allow their children to go to.
The government has allowed this and it appears to be an acceptable side effect of unlimited “migration”, to them.

Illegals have brought TB to Texas for decades, my doctor said.

Adenovirus is one of the viruses that causes the common cold. No need for immigrants to bring it in.

WebMD:

“Adenoviruses are a group of common viruses that infect the lining of your eyes, airways and lungs, intestines, urinary tract, and nervous system. They’re common causes of fever, coughs, sore throats, diarrhea, and pink eye.”

Therefore, since adenoviruses are common, and what those kids are having is not common, then whatever they have is new. And nationwide. Just so happens that recent volumes of immigration is new and nationwide.

What the kids have is a common virus in the setting of chronic illness, compromised immune systems and likely lung problems to start with. There is nothing new about adenovirus. Immigration brings a lot of problems but this is not one of them. And I didn’t even have to look it up on web md

“There is nothing new about adenovirus.”

Okay then, contact the CDC and inform them that they should not allow the media and doctors to say that the disease is “mysterious.”

The CDC has nothing to downturns what media and drs say. If you believe all the hype you read then go for it. Adenovirus is one of the most common Illnesses this time of year. Believe as you wish

“Adenovirus is one of the most common Illnesses this time of year. Believe as you wish.”

I have said nothing at all about adenovirus. Nothing at all.

Whatever the kids are coming down with is new. That is what the doctors are saying. The polio like illness is new. No one, I repeat, has said that the adenovirus is new. Do I make myself clear?

The flu virus is not new, but new flu strains crop up yearly. And they don’t originate in the U.S.

Immigrants are bringing in diseases to Europe that Europe never had previously and bringing in diseases to the United States that were formerly eradicated. And I suppose some new ones.

During previous immigration periods to the United States, immigrants were closely monitored for diseases. If they were sick, they were sent back. If they could not work, they were sent back.
