Full blown case of Tuberculosis diagnosed in Florida school
Regarding the student diagnosed in Miami Florida with Tuberculosis..
I decided to find out more about the disease.
I went to the CDC (Center for Disease Control) and they had some very recent information dated March 2005. Here is some of what I learned.
More than one third of the global population is infected with TB.
Each year around the world 8 million people become infected, 2 million die.
TB rate among foreign born is 9 times the rate of U.S. born.
Seven states now bear more than half the total burden of TB:
California, Florida, Texas, Georgia, Illinois, New Jersey, and New York.
There is a new multi-drug resistant TB.
The CDC is using a notification system to alert local health departments
about immigrants arriving who are known or believed to have TB.
They are working with public health officials in Mexico to improve TB control among those who frequently cross the U.S. border from Mexico.
There is important information you can read at the CDC website.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

Right you are! This is directly linked to ILLEGAL ALIENS as well as our outrageous policies directed toward DON'T ASK DON'T TELL with ILLEGAL children in school!!!
I'm furious that PARENTS are not standing up and demanding that NO MORE ILLEGALS IN SCHOOL!!!
We do NOT check these kids for diseases & if we did it would break the already overburdened school systems and drain their money!!!
Parents...........pull ALL your kids out of school and then watch what happens! You'll have every county effected turned on their ears with fearJoin our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

Will it get to the point where we all have to stand in long lines to be tested for Tuberculosis?
How many billions of dollars will that cost the Federal Government?
Won't that do wonders for the Federal Deficit?
Please calculate it in with the tremendous cost of illegals already.
Or will it be the responsibility of the states?Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
