Milwaukee 'cluster' outbreak of HIV and syphilis, including babies and teens
2018-03-09
[FOX] An outbreak of sexually transmitted disease is hitting the Milwaukee area, and an alarming percentage of the patients are teenagers.

According to The Journal Sentinel, at least 125 people -- including some high school students -- have contracted HIV, syphilis or both in one of the largest sexually transmitted infection “clusters” discovered in the city.

Less than 10 percent of the 125 people who tested positive are Milwaukee Public Schools students, but health care experts anticipate the number of cases could go up.

“This is an epidemic people are not talking about enough, and it leads to people taking unnecessary risks,” said Melissa Ugland, a public health consultant told the newspaper.

#6  I assume the infections can be traced, for instance. And the infection pattern and string of timeline can be determined. Earliest "teenager" infected ?...

You are asking too much of our mentally challenged left wing media. They are used to being fed info from their political masters, not actually investigating things.

#2  Do you feel empathy for these 125 individuals? HIV AND Syphilis. Its just Natural Selection at work.Male or Female? Does it matter ? They were just having fun. Nothing wrong with that.

There is a lot left out of this story. It seems someone is reporting with a few facts being withheld. I assume the infections can be traced, for instance. And the infection pattern and string of timeline can be determined. Earliest "teenager" infected ? Subsequent other "teenagers" involved. ..again I ask Male or Female ....percentages by sexual gender and the time line. And how does a baby get syphilis?

Were Batman and Robin involved? Any Sheep or other animals involved, PitBulls, German Shepards? Democrats or other Politicians? It probably has a rather selective clientele.

"people are not talking about enough"....really?
