Perhaps another use for Ivermectin?
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
The false positive rate was 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
Quarantine the sick. Protect the vulnerable. Hang the guilty. Free everyone else.
And a national debt of $40 trillion.
Oh, noes!!
Don’t go near the water....
I think they misspelled "illegal aliens".
Thanks for the ping.
It can come in as dust as well.
Whitmore’s disease.
Break out the doxy
Some of the soil-born pathogens are deadly. There is one in the woodland soil where Beau hunts for black bear, up North.
We have lost a superb bear dog to a soil-related disease they can get. Botrisis, I think it’s called. Effects the lungs, and once they’re symptomatic, it’s too late.
It’s totally hit or miss and you can’t guard against it, either. :(
For us old folks it was Pseudomonas psuedomallei or in a more common vernacular, “False glanders”. I saw several cases of it in animals but just first detected in the country? Just call me skeptical. It wasn’t a reportable disease but is highly contagious.
Several years ago I had a gardening injury that was infected. I’ll never forget the look on the doctor’s face when he was telling me the results of the culture, and admitted that he’d never even heard of the types of bacteria in my infection!
It took 3 different antibiotics all at once, including Cipro, to knock it out. All because I decided to pull weeds without gloves on.
A little dirt is harmless, until it isn’t. The fact that humans survive at all is a miracle.

“...Melioidosis is a rare disease in the United States, but it is common in tropical or subtropical areas of the world, including Southeast Asia, Africa, and Australia...”
The article at the top of the thread left a bit out, didn’t it...
