You do know that at one time in America we use to put TB infected people in jail who refused to confine them selfs at home.

You know those pesky International agreements only count for the United States Government no one else really needs to adhere to them (sarcasm mode off). Thanks for another well reasoned response.

Those 76 trips were 76 border crossings. They do not count the trips taken within the US after the infected man crossed the border.

I think the US at a minimum needs to stick Mexico with the bill, and if they do not pay, deduct it from any aid we provide to them. The bill would necessarily include the following:

1. The $500,000 treatment cost per person just to get the disease under control.

2. Reimbursement for anyone infected for lost wages, expenses and other costs for the 18 to 24 months it takes just to get the disease under control (read-to be non contagious to others);

3. The cost, which we are already undoubtedly incurring, of additional medical tests and other costs in the assessment of patients near any area the infected man visited to insure that a health care provider does not mistake this strain of TB for a lesser ailment;

4. All costs, including medical expenses, lost wages, follow up care and other related expenses, for each individual infected following the 18 to 24 month initial treatment period.

5. Compensation to the family each infected person who dies from contracting the disease for their wrongful death. That compensation would be determined in accordance with the formulae used in connection with the WTC victims.

That is just for the Mexican government. I hope that a full Congressional investigation is conducted, and that all persons responsible, including Michael Chertoff, receive appropriate sanctions up to and including their removal.

Mexico is our friend? Time for Congress to get the lead out, build the wall, and get serious about enforcing our existing immigration laws. Your special interest pandering for votes and money is costing American lives and livelihoods.
