When doctors start comparing a disease to AIDS, it's time to take a closer look at what's going on. You don't want to start freaking out without reason, but you don't want to shrug it off, either. Chagas disease is a nearly incurable disease caused by a parasite called Trypanosoma cruzi, or the "
kissing bug," and has affected approximately 8 million people worldwide, and 300,000 people in the U.S. But it's not a
death sentence, and, incidentally, it's not spread by kissing.
According to PubMed Health, Chagas is either spread by infected kissing bugs (in areas where they're common, such as South America), or by blood transfusion in areas where they're not (such as the U.S.). It can also be passed on Symptoms include fever, constipation, abdomen pain, and loss of appetite. The real danger is in its potential to impact the heart, which could lead to death. Does it sound like something you should be afraid of?
You know how boys are... sorta dumb until they figure things out.
These diseases ARE worrisome as are Asteroid Collisions,, Global Heat waves,, Ice Ages,, Gamma Bursts and Supervolcanoes and because,, as we ALL know,, NONE of them are a danger until a Presidential election is looming,, I won't feel safe again until AFTER the elections in November..
WHEN is mankind gonna learn?? WHEN will we learn from the past??
Eliminate Presidential Elections and mankind will be safe once again..
Seems like just another thing to get us to take our eyes off the ball again.
The last time we did that we lost habeus corpus.
I sure hope come November, the general population doesn't forget that it's Congress who's at fault as much as the POTUS.

Kissing bugs? I like Torchmanner ~PWCM~JLA answer and what worries him better.
About this GTFO, ... what? Try this.
Jesus: the original hippie.
Here we are back at the beginning. Would you like to continue?
Not even among the Democrats till Jan. 2010.
He is 1.3 trillion over budget for 2012, the most ever, and still wants to blame Bush for it. No president has ever gone a trillion dollars over the fiscal yearly budget.
This is his fourth year in office and he's looking around to blame someone, and has worn out the Bush Blame Thing. Now I guess its the Republican House he will blame. He and his radical W.H. are masters at this.
Maybe the Kissing bugs will bite his ass, then Harry and also fancy Nancy paints.

BECAUSE of the BUSH tax cuts for the RICH. Bush's wars and crashing the economy to. DUH!
Obama is a spineless coward for not standing up to the Republicans and cutting the rich tax cuts. I don't like Obama any more then I like Bush. Obama is just Bush 2.0.
FYI: Subprime Loans;
(people borrowing money with no real collateral or down payment and paying long term high interest rates).
This was breading for years and Congress was warned. Even the Democratic Congress (both House and Senate) were democratic during Bush’s last two years 2007 and 2008 and never did squat about this after they and the Republicans were warned time after time by many astute economist from about 2003 or 4.
You seem to know nothing about economics that has transpired over the last 10 years. My wife and I got the highest tax breaks from the Bush administration tax cut. It was $600.00 dollars apiece. There were no magic loop holes created for the rich, just liberal propaganda.
Boy, $ 600.00, I bet the rich went out and bought new yachts.
By the way, he, Obummer does not have a 1.3 trillion Budget Bust, He and Congress own this. Both sides of the isles. President does not make the budget, he only signs off on it or veto’s it.
Don't let your mouth flop open and overload your butt?
Bush should have been saving for a rainy day instead of blowing it on wars. A bubble in the housing market caused the crash. Bubbles happen in capitalism, no way around it. So you have to save for that rainy day. If Bush had saved then the bailouts wouldn't have hurt so much and we could afford the tax cuts.
A God Dame whole nation of welfare thinking people we have now. Financial dooms-day rising.
Your last paragraph is preposterous!
A far reach blaming over 50 years of GOVERNMENT OVER SPENDING on one president. Why didn't the other president save for a rainy day? Will Obama?
No insults, but you are just a hopeless Democrat (like some of my family) and will believe or blame everything on anybody except Democrats, they are historically known and notorious for TAX and SPEND since Woodrow Wilson who screwed the American people with pushing and promoting the Federal Reserve Bank until congress said OK.
Can’t remember if this S.O.B. was a Democrat or a Republican.
No use going on with this because I’ve been around Liberals and Democrats for an adult life time of over 50 years at age 67 now.
They have since the Hippy Marxist Sixties think like socialist and that someone owes them a living.
Jesus Christ, one would think that Obama would come up with something other than National Socialism that’s OLD and has progressively failed since its conception.
Good Luck.
The welfare programs are a TINY part of our budget. And it gets us right back to what started this thread: Jesus would want us to help the poor, WAY MORE THEN WE ARE HELPING THEM NOW.
Good Luck, out ‘a here.
