      More than 90,000 Americans get potentially deadly infections each year from
      a drug-resistant staph "superbug," the government reported Tuesday in its first
      overall estimate of invasive disease caused by the germ.
      ...
      There were 988 reported deaths among infected people in the study, for a rate of
      6.3 per 100,000. That would translate to 18,650 deaths annually, although the
      researchers don't know if MRSA was the cause in all cases.

      If these deaths all were related to staph infections, the total would exceed
      other better-known causes of death including AIDS — which killed an estimated
      17,011 Americans in 2005 — said Dr. Elizabeth Bancroft of the Los Angeles County
      Health Department, the editorial author.

      In 1987[^], half a million people marched on Washington demanding more government funding for AIDS (an entirely preventable disease). Perhaps if staph spreads a bit further among "poor urban neighborhoods", then there will be a march on Washington for that too.

      Well why don't you organize one? Oh wait... sorry I forgot, you don't actually do anything. Man you really hate poor people don't you. :rolleyes:  This is all you can figure out to do with your time? What a loser.

        Why protest? Just kill a few million cats and dogs and mice and guinea-pigs and maybe you'll find a drug that alleviates the symptons... then you just start all over again to find something to alleviate those symptons... that's the way it's done - what's your problem?

          Here's a hypothetical for you: Your wife has a one-night fling with another man. You never find out, and a year later she becomes pregnant (from you). After a checkup at the doctor, you both receive the horrible news: she has AIDS! She comes clean with you about the affair, but of course, it's too late for you. You now have AIDS, and so does your future child. Explain how this is entirely preventable.

              OK, but she did. Affairs happen. People normally split up over them and go on living their lives. In this case however, your is in peril, and there's practically nothing you could have done to stop it. Welcome to life with AIDS. Now what?

                  Then I die. Her actions in your hypothetical affect more than just herself, but the results are nonetheless entirely preventable by avoiding actions with a knowable end result. To say that, in your hypothetical, AIDS was not entirely preventable is like saying that a drunk driving fatality may not be entirely preventable. Sure it might affect somebody other than the person who undertook the risky action in question, but it is still something that does not occur randomly and spontaneously (like cancer). It is also worthy to note that your hypothetical is very hypothetical indeed as AIDS spread in the developed world almost entirely because of homosexual promiscuity and intraveinous drug use. That is why, per my point, there was a march on Washington. AIDS represents a "lifestyle", whereas staph infections do not. Marches in support of AIDS research are really just thinly veiled marches in support of that "lifestyle". If it weren't, then there would be marches on Washington demanding action on staph infections.

                                  There were 988 reported deaths among infected people in the study, for a rate of
                                  6.3 per 100,000. That would translate to 18,650 deaths annually, although the
                                  researchers don't know if MRSA was the cause in all cases.

                                  If these deaths all were related to staph infections, the total would exceed
                                  other better-known causes of death including AIDS — which killed an estimated
                                  17,011 Americans in 2005 — said Dr. Elizabeth Bancroft of the Los Angeles County
                                  Health Department, the editorial author.

                                  In 1987[^], half a million people marched on Washington demanding more government funding for AIDS (an entirely preventable disease). Perhaps if staph spreads a bit further among "poor urban neighborhoods", then there will be a march on Washington for that too.

                                      Have you considered guerrilla aluminum-foil hat techniques? Our Omaha chapter has been experimenting with this. Basically, we tackle unsuspecting people on the street, throw them in a van, tie them up and place aluminum foil hats on their heads until the beams are reduced and they can think "clearly". For some reason it hasn't quite worked yet and we don't know why. I can only imagine that "they" have developed some sort of thought-caching mechanism that eliminates the need for constant direct beam connections.

                                      Maybe the foil creates a resonating device, amplifying trapped and reflected propaganda?

                                          Yeah, don't reply, smart ass. We all know you weren't thinking of anything but finally losing your virginity. And you wouldn't dare commit the sin of wearing any protection. And while we're on it, what's this fixation with Kyle's mom? Aren't you a little hypocritical when you get so incensed when someone mentions the bit of fluff on your arm? :doh:

                                          Compassionate Conservatism is an Oxymoron. Bush is just a Moron.
