Oh no red states!! Anyways......yeah I got family that are MAGAts in Ohio, no I don't care if they are affected. Reap what you sow, they asked for this.
This is MAGA's fault. I'm sure our new director of health will let this spread, burn out the unhealthy amongst us. Vaccines are for losers is the new American mandate.
Ohio!? Oh, no! Not at our 87% Republican State House?
Not at our Republican Governor's mansion? Not at the Really, Really, Radical Far Right Secretary of State's office? Cuz, that would be bad. Very bad. Allegedly.

(Someone told me I can say any horrible thing if I add 'Allegedly'.)
I’m in Ohio and I work at a senior facility. We will be decimated by TB. I will be masking for the next few years. But my patients are very vulnerable and they don’t understand masking.
Red states have the lowest infant mortality rates
Red states have the longest lifespans
Red states have the lowest maternal death rates
Red states have the lowest rate of gun deaths
Red states have the lowest childrens death rates
So, please, do not mask up or get vaccines, You dont need them😈😈😈
Trump and musk need to go visit those poor people and give them a kiss to heal them as this is our new medical system ( and maybe get the disease themselves)
Pretty sure RFK will take care of it!! He seems to have his finger on the pulse of vaccines and emerging science!! I just made myself throwup in my mouth writing that!
Maybe they need to shut down travel can you imagine what one person who has tuberculosis could do on an airplane or just actually walk into another state into a large area
I recommend getting your titers checked. If you are no longer immune to something, you can get a booster. Also, buy N95 masks. https://www.mountsinai.org/health-libra...
Tell them you have TB ....and you are NOT masking or isolating because of individual freedom!!!!They just about have a heart attack when you say that..😂🤣
I'm not saying it isn't in OH, but the linked article only talks about 67 cases in KS since 2024. Way higher than normal.
Do you have an article about OH?
does this outbreak standout in a particular demographic? an air horn pathogen like tb can be weaponized on particular places of gathering. i truly fear the worst.
He killed millions during his last presidency and I'm sure his dictator masters gave him a part on the head for it too.... Buckle up people he's going to kill millions more and never be held accountable.
Not sure. I remember twice when I was in school (probably late 70s & early 80s) the school had TB testing done because one of the students and one of the staff tested positive. Nobody else tested positive.
When we had tb at the hospital, only fit tested nurses could go in, they were in a negative pressure room (pushed air outside, pulling air into the room. If you have an actively sick person, coughing can spread it.
MAGA, please remember that vaccines, masks, and washing your hands don't work.
Show your conviction and commitment by meeting regularly with lots of people, especially those who you know are infected with Tuberculosis, H5N1 and CoVid.
Ain't that the sad truth? The one consolation, most people in blue states aren't anti-vax nuts. I worry for the young and elderly though. People's lives are at stake. We lost over one million Americans because of this idiot. We are here, again.
If you have active TB disease, you must be treated with antibiotics to kill all of the germs and cure the TB. Treatment usually takes between 6 and 9 months. TB medicine is usually given by a trained health care worker who will watch you take each dose of medicine.
That’s assuming the type of TB you have can be treated with antibiotics! There are several different types of antibiotics resistant TB bacteria including one resistant to everything!😳
Good news is that it will mostly be anti-vaxxers and magats that are affected. If they are anti-vaxxers, refuse medical treatment unless it's a child, not their fault their parents are fucking idiots, but refuse insurance coverage.
That shit spread like wild fire... And since we have no communication between states through the CDC... A lot of people will suffer from life long symptoms and or die from TB.
Gee we had eradicated that, what's next, Bubonic plague, leprosy, some new strain of bird flu,with no vaccines anymore it's gonna be survival of the fittest, he killed at least 700 thousand last time, and he's piling up more as we speak, the death toll this time will make sure we never rise again💀💀💀
Trump was made to look like an idiot last time, when he promised Covid would just "go away." This time around, he's making sure you don't even know there's a problem. I just checked the CDC website and there is no info at all on any TB happening in the US...

Yes, thank you, I know that too. But here in Germany it is reportable. A follower wrote earlier that Trump had blocked a related website on the Internet. Open TB is spreading like wildfire
I sent the article to my Mom. She is 93, and will begin five rounds of radiation therapy next week. I am usually there to take care of her. Thank you for posting that.
Although the majority in KS are despicable MAGATs, many are not - 47% of Sunflower Staters voted for Harris. I have many friends there that despise trump and his cult. I have no problem inflicting pain and natural selection on MAGATs, but this affects a lot of innocents.
Better get your shots people. I ain't joking. The Culling will hit the unvaxed and sorry for that but just CYA right now folks. Get your shots today at CVS or Walgreens.
And not just what's recommended, considering we might be living in third-world conditions soon. Also, insurance probably won't cover what isn't recommended for this country, typhoid and yellow fever come to mind. I'd get a polio booster, for sure.
I travel to shady places, so I'm probably good lol, but it wouldn't hurt to look over my record. That being said, some vaccines that aren't common here are difficult to get, often only through health departments. Who knows how long we will have taxpayer-funded services.
Not long. so better sooner than later. I don't see Obama care lasting more than a few more weeks at the rate Elon is hacking. Those boys are gonna be great fish food.
If my prognostication is correct it's worse than you can imagine here. I would be considering moving to another location within the next year if you have a Passport. We have worn out our loyalty on to many assets. Someone's gonna blacken our eye pretty hard soon. Just out of pure survival instinct.
Like hitting the side of the TV when the channel wasn't coming in just right. All the Secrets that Trump sold last summer to UAE and to Russia has to have some treasure troves in it and I hear that Elon's got connections to China and Russia Financially. So it's getting time to seek safe harbors
Look for RFK Jr. and Trump to eliminate liability shields for the developers of vaccines. Then you will see the cost of vaccines escalate (inflate) and insurance companies jack up copays for them. Enjoy.
Going by the shock doctrine attitude of the past several weeks, I fully anticipate that RFKjr will reschedule the vaccines to remove access to them and they will use it as an opportunity to direct outrage to this such event while they do something else even more heinous.
Some are that way. It doesn't hurt to go to Walgreens or CVS and ask the pharmacist what you need to retake. You are right some are not needed but some need to be boostered. God Bless you.
Follow @rubinallergy.bsky.social (among others) who are warning of outbreaks as well as recalls on foods & other products that could cause adverse health outcomes.
My mother caught TB as a teenager before the vaccine was commonly available. It destroyed her lungs, one had to be partially removed. She died aged 37, I was 14 months old.
Nobody should have to suffer as she did, nobody should have to lose a mother for the want of a simple vaccine.
My friend's mother died of TB when he was three.
He remembers looking through neighbours' homes, one after another, thinking that somehow, she must be there...
for his little brother, their mother is not even a memory...TB is preventable!
So sorry for your loss. That sucks and the fact that it was so preventable I’m sure compounded your pain. Sadly we are looking at a repeat of that exact scenario with RFK Jr and Trump in charge.
We can expect that MAGA, fElon & Trumpians will use the vaccine, but deny that to others.
Look back when Trump got COVID (the simple cold, you know) - his medication was done with monoclonal antibodies, so nothing you use when you've caught a cold.
But they gonna make a brain worm head of HHS.. As bad as I hate to say this, I hope funeral homes are better prepared than they were during COVID cause bouta be real busy!!!
The cough for whooping cough is distinct,though...isn't it? I'm not being sarcastic. Frankly I'm considering leaving the continent, rather than livenextto America with no cdc
But it won't be just them because there are a lot of people out there acting like it's before 2019. I wear a mask in public because I'm immunocompromised. Went to a medical facility, one of the staff (UNMASKED) asked why I was wearing one. I told her why. She said "Yeah, I'm immunocomped too". 🙄
I saw an oncologist through COVID and the staff weren't masking. When I wore one, they acted miffed because they assumed I'd ask them to mask up. I told my oncologist that I'm doing it for the chemo patients, as they are severely compromised. It didn't seem to register that she should, too.
Sounds like me. Except my county is red. Scary as hell to think I'm in the midst of people who basically don't believe in science & expect others to follow them into the abyss. I feel like I'm on the Titanic & all the lifeboats have left. And H5N1 is surging in chicken houses all around here. 😳

Spreading quickly.
Absolutely no critical thinking skills whatsoever.
Not at our Republican Governor's mansion? Not at the Really, Really, Radical Far Right Secretary of State's office? Cuz, that would be bad. Very bad. Allegedly.

People all over Kansas are asking that age old question...
TB or not TB ?
Red states have the longest lifespans
Red states have the lowest maternal death rates
Red states have the lowest rate of gun deaths
Red states have the lowest childrens death rates
So, please, do not mask up or get vaccines, You dont need them😈😈😈
Seriously, America should be extremely concerned about the spread of infectious diseases now!
Then can we assass… remove him?
And RFK Jr. will likely be confirmed. Lordy.

Do you have an article about OH?
This is the only confirmed case I’m seeing though.
If your in a red state call, email, write and go in person ask why he let you not know the risks

You know the rest..........
Putin is the carpenter building his next new thing!
ALL that is needed is a single super spreader event!
Oh sorry. It should read: open

Cue La Traviata.

Many immigrants also have it they still get them in other countries. My husband and his family have all been vaccinated against it.

Today, in any developed country with a vaccine programme and good healthcare, there should be no reason for this disease to be able to spread.
Look back when Trump got COVID (the simple cold, you know) - his medication was done with monoclonal antibodies, so nothing you use when you've caught a cold.
Disease that was basically eradicated in the northern hemisphere. Kansas, Ohio Republican states.

The most insane part is that his clown car of psychotically dangerous nominees are slowly slithering through the system.
This is pretty much my worst fears coming true which has been true for about the last decade.
the /s is strong with this one...
*exaggerated pissed off eyeroll*
I knew they wanted to take us back to the 50s. Who knew they meant the 1850s?!
