You can only catch it through direct contact, they said. It's very difficult to catch, they said.
Uh huh.

The media is making a mountain out of mole hill. The can successfully treat it, and get this, and usually do about several times a year. It's only a problem in third world countries. Not that it isn't dangerous, just not as dangerous as they are making it out to be.

A look at the DHS, who is running the screenings stateside, when it comes to preparedness.

uh-huh... hard to catch. Right!
I'm thinking this jumped like Ebola-Reston did, and went AIRBORNE with a LONG shelf life!

MGMT is the part of HQ I work for. I wonder how I missed that. I'll have to see if its on our intranet site and I just overlooked it. Looks like it was released while I was on vacation, so I likely did.
Anyway... we are always under prepared for just about everything. My question is, with Health and Human Services / United State Public Health Service taking up more than 35% of the annual federal budget, why would DHS be required to take the lead on this? HHS/USPHS should take the lead and coordinate with other federal and state agencies to make it happen. That's their job... not DHS.

Perhaps you've seen my work on TV advertising for partial vehicle history reports?
