ZIKA in Marion County

[Guest]

Thank you very much, republican't congress. Don't allow any bill to pass if it is favored by the President. Block all presidential initiatives at any cost--as for, to pick a random example, ZIKA funding.

We are looking forward to a democratic house and senate.

Cry me a river, sucker.

[Guest]

Cry me a river, sucker.So if one of your friend's or neighbor's daughter lives in Marion County, conceives and is infected you would tel them to cry you a river. Is that it?

You can't possibly know everyone's relatives.

That's why we have abortions, right? You liberals made it, so now you can live with it. Remember the old saying "$hit happens and then you die."

Besides, who cares?

To start, how about women planning to have children? (If you don't "get" that, go back to sleep.) The funding was insufficient and the bill was peppered lavishly with poison pills.

Republicans took virtually no serious action.

Result? ZIKA in Marion county.

What a fool! ZIKA means it's the Republicans' fault...ha, ha. Now that is funny. And they want to throw grandma off the cliff, and they hate women.

Hey, I have an idea for you. Tell those women to get an Obama funded abortion. After all, why waste tax payer money if it is already going to Planned Parenthood.?

Zika can infect adult brain cells, not just fetal cells, study suggests
By Brady Dennis August 18 at 12:00 PM

Illumination of the fluorescent biomarker in green reveals that the adult mouse brain could be infected by Zika in a region called the subgranular zone of the hippocampus. This part of the brain is important in learning and memory. (Laboratory of Pediatric Brain Disease at Rockefeller University/Cell Stem Cell)

The more researchers learn about the Zika virus, the worse it seems.

A growing body of research has established that the virus can cause severe birth defects — most notably microcephaly, a condition characterized by an abnormally small head and often incomplete brain development. The virus also has been linked to cases of Guillain-Barre syndrome in adults, a rare autoimmune disorder that can result in paralysis and even death.

Now, in a study in mice, researchers have found evidence that suggests adult brain cells critical to learning and memory also might be susceptible to the Zika virus.

"This was kind of a surprise," Joseph Gleeson, a professor at Rockefeller University and one of the co-authors of the study published Thursday in the journal Cell Stem Cell, said in an interview. "We think of Zika health concerns being limited mostly to pregnant women."

[For Zika-infected pregnancies, microcephaly risk may be as high as 13 percent]

In a developing fetus, the brain is made primarily of "neural progenitor" cells, a type of stem cell. Researchers believe these cells are especially susceptible to infection by the Zika virus, which can hinder their development and disrupt brain growth. Most adult neurons are believed to be resistant to Zika, which could explain why adults seem less at risk from the virus's most devastating effects.

But some neural progenitor cells remain in adults, where they replenish the brain's neurons over the course of a lifetime. These pockets of stem cells are vital for learning and memory. Gleeson and his colleagues suspected that if Zika can infect fetal neural progenitor cells, the virus might have the same ability to infect adult neural progenitor cells. That's precisely what they found.

"We asked whether [these cells] were vulnerable to Zika in the same way the fetal brain is," Glesson said. "The answer is definitely yes."

Gleeson is the first to admit that the findings represent only an initial step in discovering whether Zika can endanger adult human brain cells. For starters, the study was conducted only in mice, and only at a single point in time. More research will be necessary to see whether the results of the mouse model translates to humans, and whether the damage to adult brain cells can cause long-term neurological damage or affect behavior.

But the initial findings suggest that the Zika virus, which has spread to the United States and more than 60 other countries over the past year, may not be as innocuous as it seems for adults, most of whom never realize they have been infected. Researchers found that infected mice had more cell death in their brains and reduced generation of new neurons, which is key to learning and memory. The possible consequences of damaged neural progenitor cells in humans would include cognitive problems and a higher likelihood for conditions such as depression and Alzheimer’s disease.

[Obama administration to shift $81 million to fight Zika]

“Zika can clearly enter the brain of adults and can wreak havoc,” Sujan Shresta, another study co-author and a professor at the La Jolla Institute of Allergy and Immunology, said in a statement. “But it’s a complex disease — it’s catastrophic for early brain development, yet the majority of adults who are infected with Zika rarely show detectable symptoms. Its effect on the adult brain may be more subtle, and now we know what to look for.”

William Schaffner, an infectious disease expert at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, agreed Thursday that the findings are preliminary. But he also called it troubling.

"Here's the deal — the more we've learned about the Zika virus, the nastier it is," said Schaffner, who was not involved in the study. He said scientists have had concerns all along about Zika's ability to damage the brain, but until now the worries have focused mostly on the developing brain. "This mouse study will increase our anxiety. ... It's an additional potential way that this virus can cause human illness."

That's a possibility that demands further examination, he said, given the hundreds of thousands of people already infected by Zika — a number that continues to grow daily.

"Our attention, quite understandably, has been devoted to pregnant women and newborns, and preventing those infections," Schaffner said. "This mouse study will tell investigators that, in addition to pregnant women, you have to establish some studies in older children and adults as well."

Gleeson agreed. "We don't want to have this be a panic. Zika, for the most part, is a benign condition in healthy humans," he said. "But we also need to look at the potential consequences in a careful way."

I vaguely remember reading that Reagan became more concerned about AIDS when Rock Hudson was infected. "Despite opposition from many Republican Party leaders, [Nancy] Reagan pushed for stem-cell research, established an Alzheimer’s research institute, and, like first lady Betty Ford before her, talked publicly about her breast cancer treatment when the subject was still considered taboo in polite society." I'll bet the disease gets more attention fairly soon.

If you are worried about infection, wait until you get it and then take your antibiotics that you doctor prescribes for you.

[Guest]

The funding delay is not caused by Congress. Congress has agreed to make the money available, but an amendment has been added to provide additional funding for Planned Parenthood. POTUS Has said he will not sign the bill unless it contains the PP funding.

So, it seems to me that Obama is the one playing with our health.

I beg to differ. POTUS asked for $1.9b, congress approved $1.0b, combined with multiple poison pills, including DEfunding Planned Parenthood. POTUS would not permit the defunding, nor the other poison pill amendments, and the $1.0b was wholly insufficient for a public health issue of this magnitude in the first place.

[Guest]

Senate Democrats rejected the GOP funding measure on Tuesday, 52-48, arguing that it would rob Obamacare of funding, impose new restrictions on Planned Parenthood and provide some $800 million less than the Obama administration is seeking. They’re also miffed that the measure, part of legislation to finance the Veterans Affairs Department, would allow the Confederate flag to fly at veterans cemeteries.

Yes, of course worry about Zika while you plan your next trip to the countries that have far more preponderance of Malaria and Dengue fever being transmitted by mosquitoes. If you are that worried, use Deet on yourself to keep the bites down. You actually have a better chance of being hit by a car than contracting Zika.

[Guest]

I've been to many countries having malaria and dengue fever, which are transmitted by mosquito. Funny how no one ran around in a panic over the prospects of being bitten by a bug. I even had dengue fever from a bite, most likely while on one of my weekly visits to the rain forest. No, it's no laughing matter. However, it is not something for anyone to panic over. Oh, and I did not get the fever from Africa. It was in South America. I am not going to allow the prospect of zika interfere with my lifestyle any more than I allowed the prospect of getting stung by a "killer bee" bother me a couple decades ago, during that scare. Like I said before, if you are prone to bug bites (some are more than others) then use Deet. This does not have to be mind crippling.

Like their posts do here.

It's a "joke", a "stereotype" for a reason...it's true.

Stereotypes ARE true...that's how they come about...people see a common trait or action and voila...a stereotype is born. If you're not allowed to talk about it, political correctness, you get "jokes".

So, you are saying that only the poor are bit by mosquitoes? Wow, that's pretty cool. It hardly effects anyone the mosquito bites, and then hardly anyone that is pregnant. The odds are very much against Zika and in about another month or so, it will be gone. SO, don't panic the world will not end and we will still have poor people in America. The poor will always be with us, even if the rich are wiped out.
