Bathtub Cheese Causing Rare TB

By wayne 163 days ago from http://trucking.bloggerunleashed.com

A very old thought to be mostly irradiated drug resistant form of TB is making a comeback among the Hispanic communities in Southern California. This rare form of TB is being seen mostly in homemade cheese and unpasteurized diary products, commonly known as bathtub cheese. Most adults that contract the disease will probably die from it.

It's a disease being spread by illegal and unsafe diary foods brought into the US by Mexican immigrants. There is very little chance of spreading the disease human to human because this form of TB doesn't normally settle in the lungs.
