Blonde chick on the news this morning, married to the guy who traveled with TB...

"We didn't know the TB was contagious"

WTF? How can you not know? How stupid are you? Your dad works for the CDC to prevent TB, for pete's sake.

I don't believe you. You are selfish and stupid.

Apparently.

Selfish, rich people who think they're entitled to whatever they want.

I get pissed when parents bring a sick child into my daycare, putting us at risk for a cold. But TB?! Livid.

yeah seriously. what scares me is what if this isn't an isolated case? what if there are ppl. who travel like that more than you think? you know what i mean? i guess i'm just ultra worried, cause of the meds i will be taking are immuno suppressants putting me at higher risk for things like TB :( frankly, i think that man should be charged and treated like a criminal. no different than someone knowing they have AIDS and having inprotected sex wtih other ppl. kwim?

Oh wow. I didn't realize that that stuff was an immunosuppressant. I guess it would have to be, though.

So do you get info on what to do if you get sick?

I totally agree, he should be prosecuted. And sued, when/if others start getting sick.

I can't believe how dumb people are! I would be beyond pissed if I were on that plane he took! You know he has to be in isolation for a year, hows that for starting off your new marriage??

He said he was afraid that if he stayed in Italy he would die from poor treatment, the US dr's said that if he had gotten help then he wouldn't be facing all of this illness that he is....

What happened to my comment? LJ is being stupid again?

We have people in our church that attend mass everyday, even if they or their children are sick. They have exposed the entire church to chicken pox, whooping cough, etc.

Maybe they don't understand that really, it's ok to miss Mass once in a while? God understands, especially when you're sick. At least that's a part of my belief system. We stay home when we're sick. Back when I had mono in high school, I didn't go for *months*.
