This is all news to me and shows how we don't know what we don't know. It says that Stanford University in 2013 discovered how bacteria can "hide" in certain human cells.
Typhoid Mary - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This also says that several hundred cases of Typhoid Fever still occur in The U.S. each year and the government can quarantine you if you have it.. http://www.cdc.gov/nczved/divisions/...typhoid_fever/ The use of antibiotics as a treatment is comforting..

The government does not quarantine patients with typhoid. From your CDC link " if you work at a job where you handle food or care for small children, you may be barred legally from going back to work until a doctor has determined that you no longer carry any typhoid bacteria" CDC Emergency Preparedness and You | Understand Quarantine and Isolation | Questions and Answers 'The list of diseases for which quarantine or isolation is authorized is specified in an Executive Order of the President. This list currently includes cholera, diphtheria, infectious tuberculosis, plague, smallpox, yellow fever, viral hemorrhagic fevers (Lassa, Marburg, Ebola, Crimean-Congo, South American, and others not yet isolated or named), Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), and influenza caused by novel or reemergent influenza viruses that are causing, or have the potential to cause, a pandemic.' In other words if you are a food handler or work in day care or similar high risk occupations you may be barred from working, but not confined to your home. Individual states may have additional requirements. |

And thanks for the other correction too. It is good to have someone with medical knowledge on here. Are you at all worried about Ebola?

No, we just don't want to cross the line and get beat over the head for having an unhealthy obsession with the subject of health. Someone is counting all the posts you make about health, so be careful. Don't cross the line!!!!!
