Great. #OWS Goons Are Coming Down With “Zuccotti Lung” (Video)

Well, they’ve accomplished one thing anyway…
They’re spreading disease and death—
Dead man in Salt Lake City…
Tuberculosis
in Atlanta…

‘Zuccotti Lung’ on Wall Street…
Suicide in Vermont…
Murder in Oakland…

NBC New York reported:

With wintry weather poised to swoop into the cramped outdoor quarters of Occupy Wall Street protesters, it may not be long before more campers catch what’s being called “Zuccotti lung.”

That’s what demonstrators have dubbed the sickness that seems to be spreading among them at an unpleasantly high rate these days: “It’s a real thing,” Willie Carey, 28, told the New York Times.

With little sleep in cold conditions, cigarettes and drinks being passed from mouth to mouth, and few opportunities to wash hands, Zuccotti Park may now just be the best place to catch respiratory viruses, norovirus (also known as the winter vomiting virus) and tuberculosis, according to one doctor.

The damp clothing and cardboard signs wet with rain are also breeding grounds for mold. Some protesters are urinating in bottles and leaving food trash discarded throughout the campground, providing further opportunities for nastiness.
