Kansas Tuberculosis Outbreak
Kansas Tuberculosis Outbreak
"The CDC is recommending citizens do a colon cleanse and to make appointments to consult with their acupuncturists to see if a chakra alignment may be needed."
If it's Kansas City Missouri it'll be chiropractors.
If that doesn't work than just attach two leeches to each nipple for 2 hours every day until the fever subsides.
For really persistent cases, please use the emergency crystals.
...and for the final cleaning, shove a UV lamp down your throat until it exits your butthole.
I sincerely expect future historians (if there are any) to have a specific name for this particular period in American history - something like "The idiot Age" or "The Faceplant Years."
Pretty sure we had "The Information Age". Seems trivial to call this "The Misinformation Age".
face palm ?
Nah, the face plant years are where you just skip the hand and directly slam your face into the nearest surface because of the off-the-charts level of absurdity you're hearing. More fitting for the current state of things.
The Trump Decline.
The gas leak decades
Pretty soon they'll start calling it the Spanish Tuberculosis

The article says nothing about why.
I know it's newsweek but could they, y'know, make an effort?
They'll just say something stupid like "God's Will" lmao. Probably RFK's message as well.
EDIT: Poking around the CDC cites: "socioeconomic and disrupted health care access during the pandemic as key factors" for TB spreading without being caught.
Much in line with other commenters statements about socioeconomic factors, I submit this hyper-local diss: “Crimedotte”
Red State problems call RFK for a solution ASAP.
I wonder how long we'll even be able to know any informed details about such things under donvict.
Remember to stake the heart or cut off the head to prevent those who die of consumption from coming back to feast on the living
Oh shit, someone hide Roger Clark ASAP
Ain't nobody got time for that!
What is "blessed" exactly? Is it like luck?
Any adult who dies had it coming for being a willing idiot. I just hope it doesn't impact any kids
Treatment is available for both active and latent TB infections and involves a several-month regimen of antibiotics. Active TB patients are typically non-contagious after 10 days of treatment.
I imagine there are poor and underprivileged groups that find it harder to access and sustain this treatment than others - homeless people, for example. Seems a bit harsh to call them willing idiots.
I'm all pro-vaccine and all, but this isn't something that we commonly vaccinate against.
So how are adults that die from it willing idiots?
The only assumption I can make is that they didn't seek medical care when they were sick? That's probably more on the problems with the cost of the medical system than it is on people's individual choices.
Yeah! What do Americans live in, a for-profit medical system or something?
