From DennisMichaelLynch.com (http://tinyurl.com/huahs6n):
“I can confirm that one hospital worker at Mercy Hospital and one hospital worker at Abbott Northwestern Hospital were diagnosed with active TB,” Allina Health Vice President of Marketing and Communications David Kanihan revealed to Breitbart News. Both hospitals are located in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area and are owned by Allina Health, confirming the diagnosis active tuberculosis (TB).
The Minnesota Department of Health reported that in 2014, 73% of the 147 active cases of TB in Minnesota were foreign born. Around one in five resettled Somali Muslims in Minnesota test positive for TB.
““In late May, Allina Health began notifying 141 people who had been patients at either Abbott Northwestern Hospital or Mercy Hospital earlier this year that they may have been exposed to tuberculosis (TB). At each location, we learned that a worker who helped deliver care had TB.

22 Percent of Resettled Refugees in Minnesota Test Positive for Tuberculosis



Jeepers, who could ever find a reason why we shouldn’t welcome such a group here with open arms? OK, there was that Blackhawk Down/al Qaeda thing, that string of ship piratings across their coast, their having been ruled for decades by the extras from Mad Max, but that’s all behind them now. Look at that vibrant Somali space program, those sterling graduates of the Somali Institute of Technology, their shining agricultural program that makes them the envy of a starving Africa…I could go on but then I’d have to get absolution from the Pope himself.
TB to me is the least of the baggage they’ll drag here. They already hold the record for Islamic groups we’ve sheltered sending soldiers to Mideast terrorist groups, and you can bet that the true numbers are far greater than the FBI’s been forced to release. Obama’s got his willing Soldiers of Islam in place, getting dewormed and well fed as they plan their next moves against a disarmed, physically and mentally, America.
Oh that one’s gotta get me on the CAIR/SPLC s***list.

Can adults who were never immunized again the standard diseases get immunized or are there actual risks to adults? Also, is TB one that gets immunized agsinst in US? (Yes, these questions point out I am one of the great uninformed)

Ask your doctor, but it’s perfectly fine for adults to immunize. In fact, you should probably get boosters – for tetanus, for example. TB is caused by bacteria, and I don’t think there is a vaccine for that – only antibiotic treatment after infection.

I checked. There IS a vaccine for TB, but it isn’t used except in special cases.
