Good - I always prefer my meningitis well-done.

Delarare?

could intrepid veteran journalist, Ric Romero possibly provide is with additional locations where this rare affliction has not yet been found? City by city or county by county... people need to know all of the possible locations where it has not been found!

Rarely have I seen reports of rare meningitis.

But we had swine flu first!

/Go Blue Hens!!

Breaking News: No e bola reported in Delaware.

Film at 11

Also no reports of reasons for anyone to be in delaware.

I went to high school with a guy who didn't have that form of meningitis.

Boo to Subby. Yes, it's rare, but there have been 38 cases, caused by a bad batch of medicine, so the Delaware health department had to keep an eye out for it. The bad medicine hadn't been shipped to Delaware, but it was in all of the neighboring states.

It's not big news, but the health department might as well send out a press release. People might well want to know, since there have been cases. The article contains a useful bit of info, to be on the lookout for symptoms.

If there's something to call the reporter out on it's the journalistic "Let's just take the press release, rewrite it a bit, and knock off early". Was there better news that could have filled those column-inches? Maybe, but it's not really a Fark-worthy offense against journalism. It's not important news, but it's news. Not everything has to be Watergate.

Had meningitis as a child.

Keeping meningitis rare
It's rare, in Delaware

In unrelated news, five rare meningitis reporters have been summarily executed while trying to cross over the Delaware State Line into Delaware.

This rare event is to keep rare reports of rare meningitis from commonly being received in Delaware.

However, the common meningitis is running rampant, killing hundreds, with tens of thousands more cases expected by the weekend. The CDC is sending body bags and mobile incineration facilities.

Weather for the weekend is expected to bring cooler temps.

Aspergillus FFS.

I want to visit a screen door factory!

Delawheredad: And America's most worthless newspaper (The Wilmington News Journal) strikes again with its wonderful coverage of non news "news" while the New Castle County Council, the most corrupt political organization east of Chicago continues to avoid investigation!

No metropolis in America is as poorly served by its newspaper as Wilmington is.

To be fair, most of them can barely read, so they may be serving their audience just fine.

When Steve Jobs needed a liver transplant, he came to a Memphis hospital..

be on the lookout for symptoms, which include: severe and worsening headache, stiff neck, nausea and dizziness

The doctors are gonna love this one. Anyone with a hangover is now going to demand Expert Medical Attention right now, damn it.

No. Don't do that. I comment on the Commercial Appeal. The religious superiority and political derp there makes the FARK Politics tab look like an Oxford Discourse.

We actually had a case of this lately in our area. The reason it's being called "rare" is that it's a fungal meningitis, not bacterial.

Rare? I want my meningitis well done.

Great I had a steroid injection in my back 1.5 months ago... And have had severe headaches recently.. Also weird thing the injection did nothing, I actually hurt worse after, and had some swelling.. Usually they provide some benefit, this one. ... Nothing..


/not joking

Fungal meningitis? Oh, great, yet another thing to obsess over. Thank you corticosteroids. Thank you very farking much. As if viral and bacterial weren't enough, now fungal. How about cystic or hemorrhagic next? Or maybe a completely new, mutant form?

I'm gonna go drink. Enough grain alcohol ought to sterilize my body. Or at least render my sense of give-a-damn unconscious.

I swear to god i read: "Cases of rare mannequins found in Delaware."

This is good. I've been working in DE for a few weeks now. The worst I've had to deal with was when the Jamaican place across the street closed early.

//Yeah it's the hood but it's been fun.

OMFG, I have a mail package in NJ right now that is being shipped to me. They have had it in that state. I'm worried. Maybe I should cancel the order.

Well, it is the smallest state.

Men in ginas? What's rare about men in ginas? They've been getting in ginas forever!
Wait, what? Ohhhh, MENINGITIS...okay, never mind.

Good to know cause I'm sick and live in Delaware

Yes, it really is a steaming pile of shiat.
