It's like brightly colored hyphae in a three dimensional design. Which just happens to resemble those toys for toddlers you often see in physician waiting rooms.

>Registering at a website means that you're infected?<

Well, when that registration involves cataloging medical history, such as length of disease, symptoms, diagnosis, and other medical conditions, a reasonable person might suspect that those registering would be doing so to report their experiences with a particular disease or syndrome.

So your observations make sense how?

Read it again. They don't know the cause, but lots of people in South Texas, California and South Florida are contracting it. It's either heat related or common to people living or traveling in that area. Doesn't take a genius to speciulate. So I'll say it for the hard of hearing, THEY DON'T KNOW WHY. So it's wise to look at what's common to those area.

Sounds like some kind of fungal infection from hell.

It could be a tortilla-borne illness. :)

Perhaps, perhaps exactly right:

Leviticus 13:3
And the priest shall look on the plague in the skin of the flesh: and when the hair in the plague is turned white, and the plague in sight be deeper than the skin of his flesh, it is a plague of leprosy: and the priest shall look on him, and pronounce him unclean.

Note the reference to hair on the lesions, compare to current descriptions of fibers in the lesions...

Well, the nurse practioner said it. Whether it's true or not, I don't know, but it at least forms a basis for thinking it might be true.

South Florida has a big problem with illegal immigration?

How about noticing that the states with large populations have the most cases? Could that be a factor, you think?

They have cases of this in the Netherlands and Australia. Probably illegal aliens from Mexico, I guess.

Do you realize how right you might be?

There's lots more stories I've heard about regarding "killer tortillas".

Both countries with OTM problems.

If they're not delusional, they should have some pics of these multicolored spaghetti-fibers coming out of their chests.

Maybe these are all the same people that were getting Chemical Sensitivity Syndrome a few years back.

Unless you want to stop all international travel, blaming the spread of what doesn't appear to be a contagious disease on illegal aliens is absurd.

If and when bird flu becomes contagious among humans, this forum will blame it on illegal aliens. No doubt about it.

For Morgellons disease suffers, have them try Lamisil AT Cream (terbinafine hydrochloride cream 1%) Antifungal, available OTC at Wal-Mart for about 13 bucks.

And in your ideal world there are no controls to isolate any sneezing, snot dripping, open sore oozing pus bags from working in food prep?
