At Legal Insurrection, not only do you get hard-hitting legal analysis of current events, you also are exposed to the cutting edge of emerging disease news! Readers may recall that in November, 2016, I reported that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) indicated that the first cases of a drug-resistant and potentially fatal fungal infection known as Candida auris was recorded in the United States. In 2019, doctors diagnosed hundreds of people with it, hitting New York area the hardest.

It was with some astonishment I read the latest Scientific American piece, "Medieval" Diseases Flare as Unsanitary Living Conditions Proliferate", which reviews the government's response to the recent outbreaks of typhus, hepatitis A, and measles.

Mysterious, paralyzing disease has now spread to 31 states and Canada

Posted by Leslie Eastman on November 28, 2018 28 Comments

We have been following the spread of a mysterious, polio-like disease that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has named acute flaccid myelitis (AFM). The illness, the cause of which remains undetermined, continues to expand its range and public health officials have recorded 286 cases.

The mysterious, rare 'polio-like' disease blighting the US has now spread to 31 states, sickening at least 116 children. And yet, officials still have no idea what causes acute flaccid myelitis (AFM), nor how to treat or prevent it. The poorly understood illness, which can cause paralysis and, in rare cases, prove deadly, has struck Colorado the hardest, followed by Texas.

The “nightmare” of this year’s flu season

Posted by Leslie Eastman on January 20, 2018 28 Comments

I noted that this year's flu season was likely to be harsh, especially in the wake of an ineffective vaccine and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention classifying it as "moderately severe" and anticipating over 50,000 deaths.

CDC Panel On “Public Health Response to a Nuclear Detonation” Creates Leftist Meltdown

Posted by Fuzzy Slippers on January 06, 2018 37 Comments

When I saw the tweeted outrage from the perpetually outraged about the Center for Disease Control (CDC)'s upcoming panel on the "Public Health Response to a Nuclear Detonation," I rolled my eyes and thought "here they go again." After all, earlier this week, North Korea's Kim Jong Un threatened the U. S. with a nuclear strike on our "entire" mainland. No one really knows how crazy Un is. Unlike his grandfather and father before him, he's never known a time when his family wasn't ruling over North Korea with an iron fist.
