Emergency Crews Take Precautions Against Disease

By the very nature of their purpose, emergency crews are often exposed to the threat of serious illness. Aside from Tuberculosis there are three other diseases that concern paramedics. "HIV is another one, hepatitis B is another one, and meningitis,"
People need to take precautions right now.

Very scary to be in the health care business lately with all the undiagnosed TB floating around.

I had one of my good friends come in my office today after three weeks in Nepal hiking in and around Everest and the photos were awesome. Those folks live in a very geological unstable area. Rock slides all the time and the run off rivers are violent. He said there were some nice hot springs to bathe in. I told him about the warnings for USA travelers and he said he was on the mountain eighteen days and did not get it until he got back. I ask him if he had a cough
