There is a drug-resistant tuberculosis outbreak at Occupy Atlanta.
Via Fox Nation:
ATLANTA (CBS Atlanta) – The home base for Occupy Atlanta has tested positive for tuberculosis.
The Fulton County Health Department confirmed Wednesday that residents at the homeless shelter where protesters have been occupying have contracted the drug-resistant disease. WGCL reports that a health department spokeswoman said there is a possibility that both Occupy Atlanta protesters and the homeless people in the shelter may still be at risk since tuberculosis is contracted through air contact.

want to bet since they're in the homeless shelter that they caught it from the homeless people whose shelter they occupied? Homeless people who themselves might very well be carrying the bug and be largely immune to it?
