West Nile Virus Epidemic In Texas [View all]

Welcome to global warming. We now have a tropical disease in all but six states in the US. West Nile Virus obviously is common in the area where the name indicates. Presently there is no medicine to treat this disease. Your immune system is on its own.

So I guess it is all part of God's plan that this disease is occurring down there. The irony is that the states with the highest denial rate on climate warming will be the ones effected the most.
