CDC Now Reports TRIPLE the Number of TB Cases Among Refugees as Obama Leaves Office

We need to start checking for TB before we admit anyone into our country.

As contagious as that disease is, methinks the proverbial cows have already fled the barn there, bubba.

With there being more than just TB out there, we need to start checking for everything.

Leprosy has the highest number of cases in Brevard County, Florida. That same strain is also found in Florida armadillos, the vector. Roadkill armadillos are rampant around Little Rock Arkansas. This is a different scenario than Asians with strange accents entering at Fort Smith. After having changed a flat tire, will a refugee get any armadillo poop under their fingernails? TB was detected in cattle in Pennsylvania, though the source is from Franklin County, Indiana. Retired circus elephants in Tennessee contracted TB, and the USDA was taken to task for its lack of surveillance.
