Is TB one of the things we get immunization shots for as kids?

Sanctuary city...

We give you our jobs and allow your crimes and in exchange you reward us with disease.

Such a deal!

And it is just the beginning...

Far, far more to come.

This is just war against the Americans by other means. Between the dead kids in schools from gangbangers (er, “children” from El Salvador), the diseases that we thought we eradicated over a century ago, to the wholesale intimidation of a new generation for their money, the end result will be death, disease and poverty for Americans.

"Kasirye said such an outbreak was not uncommon. "

Yeah, put a pretty spin on it.

Said the Captain of the Titanic: "Such leaks are not uncommon."

“TB Vaccine (BCG) Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is a vaccine for tuberculosis (TB) disease. This vaccine is not widely used in the United States, but it is often given to infants and small children in other countries where TB is common.”

I’m 60. I’m pretty sure I got one. But apparently they stopped as it was considered beaten.

Huh, I didn’t even know there was a vaccine. We didn’t get it, but I remember an occasion in the early 70s when our whole school in Chula Vista, CA, was tested for TB, after a student was diagnosed.

The way I understand it, the new strain of TB can’t be beaten. It can sometimes to treated, though some patients still progress unpleasantly. But the patient will essentially be in prison for the rest of his life. It is very contagious, which is why the entire school was tested. Be thankful you tested negative.

in the 60’s and early 70’s there was a Free TB Testing Trailer in EVERY SHOPPING CENTER in America. We whipped it. But then a bunch of Marxists thought Open Borders and Unchecked Immigration was a good thing. Aint it Great!!
