I guess you can't help living under the daily thrall of the illusionary free-market in-all-things.

Competent people told him he was probably infectious, and carrying a strain that was extremely drug-resistant. That was the professionally perceived status THEN.

THEN He ignored them.

That: subsequently, after there was time to perform, refine the tests -- it turned out he was indeed 'infectious' -- only now, the probablility of any victims' recovery (whether or not there Are any victims that turn up) -- is "better" than could have been known, when he took off

Is quite beside the point. He/they were lucky. That's all. Maybe lucky, that is:

The incubation period (the time it takes for a person to become infected after being exposed) varies from weeks to years, depending on the individual and whether the infection is primary, progressive, or reactivation TB.

Your capacity for confusing innate solipsism with some bizarre "libertarian ideology" remains a strange affliction -- perhaps coal dust in the lungs, in the formative years?

If he/they escape any legally-provable causality for victims of his idiocy -?- he remains an ass in perpetuity. And especially - while waiting for those Results. If he'd coughed near any of your kids ... tell me all about his Liberties.

Post #288,997 by boxley 7/15/07 9:48:35 AM Reply	this reminds me of that poor child infected with aids that they wouldnt allow him to attend school for fear of infecting other kids. Ashton's post that he may not be infectious for years yet still wonders if you would let him breath on your kids. Sad really, he should be old enough to remember a local lunger or two. It never was that big of a deal. thanx, bill Quantum materiae materietur marmota monax si marmota monax materiam possit materiari?
