In the county I work, in the SF Bay Area, 40% of our jail's inmates are not legal citizens.
Of that, 70% test positive for TB. Of that number 0 have active TB at this time.
Two factors. One, being exposed to TB will make you test positive. Testing positive does not in any way mean you'll developed active TB. I forget the percentage, but it's low.
More importantly, several types of vaccines, especially those typically used by third world countries or those received by older Americans, will cause you to test positive.
We should still worry. But be careful when looking at numbers reported by any news outlet

under the heading for what it's worth. I grew up in prescott, where there is a big V.A. complex. Prescott was known for years as a good place to go if you had t.b. In addition the v.a. hospital treated a lot of the lungers. So, as a kid i consistly tested positive for t.b. exposure, hard not to, but never had the illness.

Small risk to take in order for small business owners(construction contractors, landscapers, food processing companies) and the large property owners who use their services to get the job done that American workers will not do and at a fair price.

You know, you would go over a lot better if you used punctuation and listed the parts that you are intending as irony under an appropriate label or icon.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

I didn't intend anything as irony and it was one proper sentence. The groups I listed benefit the most from immigrant labor and anyone who wants to see those groups saddled with higher cost labor not only hate them, but have leftist leanings as well. So how long have you been a leftist and why do you hate successful people?

You do know that I am in Australia, and that the juvenile American practice of attacking with some "commie" label means absolutely nothing to me?

You are an unpatriotic coward by birth which means your initial opinion was worthless in it's entirety. You probably don't have enough value to be in your mom's basement.

You will have to do much better than that to get a rise...I am not that easy.
That and you read like an open book.

Hate to break it to you, but most of the members here support business and property owner. They are on my side, not the side of some leftist from the liberal continent.

That was a bit ho-hum, give Hawk a PM and get some pointers from him.

it was. particularly if you were eating at a sidewalk dive and had someone come walking past chunking whilst you were trying to devour a tasty morsel of fried who-knows-what. but alcohol made it better. carry on gents, with your personal vitriolic attacks.

89 wetbacks tested positive for TB. At ONE facility in NM.http://www.elpasotimes.com/news/ci_...rants-at-fletc-being-tested-tuberculosis89 undocumented immigrants test positive for tuberculosis skin test
By Zack Ponce / Alamogordo Daily News
Posted: 07/23/2014 09:18:19 AM MDT
ARTESIA >> A total of 89 undocumented immigrants detained at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center have tested positive on the tuberculosis, or TB, skin test, but no individual has actually contracted the disease according to J.R. Doporto, a Carlsbad city councilor.
A positive TB skin or blood test only signifies that the person has been infected with the bacteria that causes tuberculosis, according to a fact sheet published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The test does not show whether the person has actually contracted the disease.
If a person tests positive on the TB skin test, he or she is then given a chest X-ray, which proves whether the subject has contracted the disease.
Doporto, Artesia Mayor Phil Burch and other various city and county officials from Southeastern New Mexico met with Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials Tuesday for an update on the status of the undocumented immigrants being detained at FLETC while they await either deportation or an asylum hearing in front of an immigration judge.
How many went right on through to the mainstream? We ain't seen nothin' yet... Pure and open criminality taking place, folks. No longer even any pretenses to legitimacy. You should give Barak's glasses back to him, then appologize. That was mean.

Fundamentally infecting America I fully understand that the illegals are spreading disease and pestilence, and that your own Government is complicit in that action. My argument is with the fellow WISHING such upon his fellow AMERICANS. You're talking about an all around hateful fellow, JS. Nae wurries. "I too would have been quite happy if it were open seas do east of Korea" As an aside, after 25 years or whatever with the USCG you'd think a real crackerjack mariner would emerge, but I guess the devil is in the details. "Do east"? Oh, dear...

I'm trying to stay positive. Perhaps 80% of SoCal will fall ill and die. There's always a silver lining. an uplifting, and cheerful analysis, that resonates across America. yeah but if Rick Bin and Sysop go well then this place is toast!
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

So you would recant if they had tickets to Sydney...it is odd that you should think so little of your fellow citizens, and that you could wish harm to them.
Must live in a different world than I.
In Scott's defense, a good majority of So. cal residents are not "our fellow citizens". They're just illegal wetbacks too

My youngest and his beautiful wife live in San Diego. They were both born in the US to US born parents. Both vote conservative.
I would rather they not die form TB or anything else being imported by out government.
Those here who want my family dead can go straight to hell.
