The problem with TB tests are this, they identify exposure only. When I take a TB test I come up positive, I have been exposed to TB, yet I am not a carrier nor do I myself have the disease.
From all reports it would seem that the Doctors were more at fault than Mr Speaker. They should have pointt blank told him that he should not travel. There are people who everyday travel that have TB.
dmk Conservatism, I repeat is not an ideology. It does not breed fanatics....But if you want men who seek, reasonably and prudently, to reconcile the best in wisdom of our ancestors with the change which is essential to a vigorous civil social existence, then you will do well to turn to conservative principles -Russell Kirk- |
