The press is dumb, and they run in packs. St. Louis encephalitis is almost identical, is spread by mosquitoes, and kills people in this country, too.
However, it's been around forever, so it doesn't sell newspapers or titillate reporters.

No...this has been a manipulated 'epidemic' that has actually failed because in the US we have good food, good sanitary conditions, and good water.
I tried to tell you guys about the expected manipulation on this particular disease about 2 1/2 - 3 years ago.
