| Global distribution of Tuberculosis. TB is endemic in countries in bright green, yellow, orange and red |
 |
| It is a safe bet that nearly every outbreak of TB in schools and nursing homes is due to a recent immigrant from a country where TB is endemic. In the case of the nursing homes, it is likely a worker. |
 |
| Many non-Western countries take pride in owning dogs that have not been spayed. Their dogs are projections of their machismo and virility. |
 |
| It is also a point of pride that their dogs can fend for themselves and are not "in prison" all day long. |
Just a reminder
"Some of you will die. But that is a sacrifice I am willing to make."
The politicians who are fighting against the SAVE Act are the same ones who think it is peachy-keen to expose your school-aged children and senior citizens to medieval diseases and think that having a certain percentage of little, old ladies torn to death by feral dogs is an acceptable price to pay for their getting reelected.
I agree that accepting citizens from countries that have no - little vaccination is a likely cause of the rise of childhood diseases which were eradicated here in the U.S. These diseases did not just spring forward. But no one in MSM will speak of this possibility - it would feed hate of recent persons, some of whom have no blame.
ReplyDeleteWithin the past two weeks, two local counties have advertised that residents who capture feral dogs - cats can take them to animal control who will send them to a clinic to be spayed - neutrered. These animals will then be returned to area where they were found. This is funded by private donors who do not want to see animal populations rise too much. NOT OWNED PETS - ONLY FERALS !
That argument is disingenuous.
DeleteMSM gleefully reports when drivers are "under-the-influence" of alcohol even though most drivers who are DWI never kill anybody.
In at least my area of NH doesn't have feral dogs.
ReplyDeleteWe shoot them. I toss them into my 2 year compost pile.
Was interesting that when COVID shots were deemed mandatory or you lose your job Congress, their staff and even the US Postal Service (plus other "lucky groups") were NOT Required to take the RNA COVID shots.
So why should Illegals...err "undocumented welfare rats" be required to have basic Public Safety SHOTS like TB and such.
BTW a side note. Unlike South America, in Russia you have free treatments and TB shots available. Folks forget that the picture of Russia INCLUDE various "STANS" that are at best backwaters of Russia proper.
It is my impression that TB is rampant in indigent and alcoholic populations in Russia and Asia
ReplyDeleteLast time I checked my EMS Logbooks TB is rampant in American indigent and drug addled populations. Along with hepatitis and STDs. All treatable and mostly preventable.
DeleteAnd again, even in America we HAVE treatments and Shots BUT it's pretty hard to get indigent and drug addled populations to COMPLY.
When I was doing medical missions in South America TB was a real in your face problem and only the wealthy could get treatment.
