Two weeks of MSM hype, now two months of hidden truth. Couple of weeks ago there was a potential case in Phoenix which got 15 seconds on the local news during one newscast with no follow-up. It is here, and we are not going to hear about it.
You'll know they've lost the handle on it here, when you see people dropping dead in the streets. Mebbe we could get Kevin Bacon to tell us all is well then, too.
Drs are under pressure of some kind not to document possible infectious diseases like enterovirus and pertussis. Had a family member with symptoms that could have been either and she was dismissed without testing with general-duty anti-biotics and otc cold meds. Requests for tests and consideration of enterovirus were particularly met with uncomfortable silence and evasion. A couple of weeks after onset, she suffered a coughing spell that put her in respiratory arrest--had to rush her to an ER that, again, treated her dismissively. Only after over 2 months and several more rounds of anti-biotics, inhalers, etc. and a consult with a good GP did we realize it was almost certainly pertussis--in large part b/c I'm in the same household, but didn't catch anything--I'd just happened to have gotten the relatively new TDAP vaccine, so had renewed immunity to pertussis (adults should get this, if you haven't). I think this is all about sweeping both the breakdown of the U.S. healthcare system that has been accelerating for the last 20 years due to mandates to give free care to the irresponsible and the really ugly, contagious by-products of the illegal immigration invasion under the rug. Of course, it could also be that the paper work required for reporting such things is so onerous, docs will do just about anything to avoid it--even nearly kill a patient.

Thanks for posting...no one in their lucid mind believes that there are no cases being hidden in this country.
