Fears grow over tomato flu outbreak as health officials give first warning over symptoms
« on: August 27, 2022, 02:19:56 pm »
FEARS are growing over the outbreak of tomato flu, as more children test positive for the illness.

It has prompted health officials in India to issue their first warning to parents - along with prevention guidance.

Doctors say that its symptoms crossover with many other diseases, including flu and Covid.

It's been branded tomato flu due to the painful red blisters that erupt on a patient's body.

Lots of diseases cause red spots or blisters, and it never occurred to anyone to name them after produce. Why now? Are these people tomatophobes?

They apparently grow quite big - like tomatoes - as the disease progresses.  Hence the name.

If they did, I think it should be a triple bonus score.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

-Ayn Rand-
