My regional public TV news put this piece up today (HR, Hessen public TV).
The cops are looking for a pair of women who came up on a woman having serious health issues yesterday....on local road L3413 at Groß-Umstadt. It's a smaller town in southern Hessen....maybe 30 minutes south of Frankfurt.
The two women arrived to help some woman (older gal) who seemed awful sick. Ambulance crew arrived and helped to carry the woman off to the hospital.
Well...tests were done, and this older gal.....she has tuberculosis. Yep, TB.
So the ambulance crew, the cops involved....they are all being observed and tested later. They now want to find these two women who left, without giving their names to the cops.
A big deal? Well, if you go back to the 1900 era....a lot of people died on a regular basis from TB. Medical advancements occurred, and for the past eighty-odd years....it's been wiped-out.
Where did this German gal get the TB? Unknown.
The odd thing is that if you go and follow newspaper listings on this...not public TV usually....then you notice about every month there's some case that erupts...usually at some school, and it relates back to refugees who entered Germany and were never tested. When I applied for my German visa.....no test for anything.
These two women doing the right of helping the older gal? Well....normally, it makes sense. But now you kinda have to wonder about things like this.
