[quote:Anonymous Coward 25311249:MV8yMDEzMDkyXzMzODMxMzE2XzNDOTNEMjc0] What seems strange to me is people that havent had the injections are getting the same type of meningitis.Maybe thats normal and as much attention wasnt paid to it as there is now with all the cases due to the injections. There is a lady in Ky with this same type and they say she wont likely live.the Georgia State Senator John Bulloch is in the hospital with it also both had no injections also a judge in Ky has died and his wife is assumong its from the injections in he got in Tennessee.So far no conformation. Just seems like there could be more to this type of outbreak. [/quote]

AFP - The death toll from an American meningitis outbreak linked to tainted medication has reached 12, according to US officials, who have documented more than 120 infections in 10 states.
Officials at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said as many as 13,000 people might have received doses of the contaminated steroid injection that has caused an outbreak of the rare fungal infection.
