BreitbartCA: A South Bay hospital is trying to track down more than 350 newborns and their mothers because they may have been exposed to tuberculosis.
This comes after Santa Clara Valley Medical Center announced that a nurse got sick. She works in the Mother and Infant Care Center at the San Jose hospital and has tested positive for tuberculosis.
“Not every baby who was born during this time was exposed to the employee with tuberculosis,” said Dr. Stephen Harris, from the Santa Clara Valley Medical Center.
While stopping short of calling it an emergency, officials at the Santa Clara Valley Medical Center say it’s important that they proactively treat 350 infants after they were possibly exposed to a nurse with active tuberculosis. read more
Where could that TB have come from?
Gee, a song comes to mind here:
“South of the Border, Down Mexico Way”
Exactly. TB was almost unknown in this Country until the current illegal alien wave started. Does anyone really believe that 10,000 kids dumped in Texas came here perfectly healthy. I don’t think it’s over the top to just say it, our own government is knowingly killing it’s own citizens.
Not necessarily. The Philippines is the largest source of foreign nurses.
So what’s the problem? We don’t have enough problems in this country yet. What’s one more?/
“Do you know the way to San Jose?”
“Follow the coughed up blood spatters!”
San Jose is infested with “future democrats”.
No doubt part of the ACA.
Santa Clara County has lots of farming and lots of migrant workers. Gilroy is the garlic capital of the world, and it smells like it too. Miles of raspberry bushes. Don’t be tempted to eat them unwashed.
Though no chance those migrants are of the Syrian flavor.
What happens when you let the border come to you.
California dreamin indeed.
VMC is where we always transported “51-50s” for 72-hour psych evaluations. It is definitely a hospital where I felt like wearing a full hazmat suit just to drop off some poor 51-50. I felt sorry having to bring them to that place. Yuck.
Isn’t a 51-50 a Crazy Mother F**ker?
Yes; hahahahahaha!!
I think that is the legal term in the Welfare and Institution Code. 😉
I remember that from the Van Halen album! ?
I am sure the NURSE didn’t come from Mexico, just the TB. Nurse likely just caught it from an immigrant patient.
So the nurse is allowed to be treating people yet she hasn’t had a basic vaccine for TB???
This exact same thing happened right here in El Paso about a year or so ago.
Exactly. When I worked as an STNA, I covered a floor that had a guy who was a ‘frequent flyer.’ He had TB, barely spoke English, was just plain foul as far as hygiene and would readily admit he came here b/c we treat him and he never has to pay his bills. He would come in for almost any reason and stay for a week. You think YOU’D get that treatment?
He had to be housed in an even MORE expensive negative pressure room, we all had to undergo ISO protocol just to empty his plastic urinals (tons of them, constantly) because that was OUR job. He couldn’t be bothered to go to the private toilet 10′ away.
That’s in Ohio.
Yep…. 2+2… She worked in an OB ward. Can we say, anchor baby?
future thoughts : anybody think the illegals will “quit paying their taxes” when they realize the other invaders get everything for free, just to peacefully practice their religion?
