Salem
YES!!! it is a blood borned pathogen. This is a Liver attacking disease that has no known cure.

Yes but usually if you do not DRINK alcohol at all, you will be OK. There are many different strains and they are transmitted via BLOOD so sex is not usually a problem unless it gets rough. A certain GENO TYPE can be treated successfully so that it will not longer be detectable.
Belvidere
yes requires blood contact. Shared needles, sex, other blood exchange.
Lake Minchumina
if you come in contact with infected blood yes but other than that no but can rarely be spread through intercourse but not kissing

It is very infectious and can be deadly if not treated. Do not go around someone with this. If you believe you have been exposed, be tested.

Yes, hepatitis C is spread by infected blood, commonly through sharing needles for drug use. It can also be transmitted by unprotected sex, but sexual transmission of hep C is very rare. Hep C is not transmitted through saliva or casual contact.

Yes it is. It can be transmitted sexually or by sharing dirty needles when doing drugs.
The Skills to Diminish Inflammation
The human body can be frequently attacked by inflammation which can be caused by various factors like bacteria and viruses. Some people think that inflammation is just a small uncomfortable response of the human body and there is no need for people to pay great attention to it. However, even light inflammation can be developed into other serious diseases, such as thyroiditis and arthritis. In order to prevent serious diseases, people should diminish inflammation in time. Some skills will be introduced to help people eliminate the inflammatory reaction.
First, people can make full use of some anti-inflammatory medicines. These medicines mainly include prednisone and aspirin. The use of these anti-inflammatory medicines can effectively help people alleviate the pain of inflammation. However, people should strictly control the intake amount of such drugs so as to prevent the dependency on drugs.
Second, people should drink enough water every day. Enough water can effectively improve absorption of nutrients, accelerate blood circulation and remove the toxins from the human body. In addition, water can also smooth muscles, adjust the temperature of body and protect internal organs. During the process of eliminating the toxins, water can effectively help people diminish inflammation. Generally speaking, people should supplement 2000 to 3000 milliliters of water every day.
Third, people can often eat anti-inflammatory foods. In our daily life, many foods like fried foods can cause inflammation. Therefore, people should strictly control the intake of fried foods to prevent inflammation. At the same time, people should increase the intake of the foods like fresh vegetables and fruits. Both vegetables and fruits can resist inflammation for people. Abundant vitamins like vitamin E contained in vegetables and fruits can maintain normal metabolism and enhance the detoxification and anti-inflammation for people. In addition, people should maintain a healthy diet to supplement comprehensive and balanced nutrients. The healthy diet can effectively help people prevent inflammation.
Fourth, people should often take exercises. The lack of exercises can cause obesity among people. Obesity can greatly enhance the resistance of insulin and raise the level, which can induce inflammation inside the human body. Therefore, it is necessary for people to take exercises and prevent obesity in our daily life. People can jog or walk outside in the evening for some minutes.
In order to prevent and diminish inflammation, people should always maintain healthy diet and take exercises in our daily life. If necessary, people can take anti-inflammatory medicines to alleviate the pain.

Why hasn't the cdc warned the american people about the new infectious disease called morgellons?
A new disease that has now infected more than 10,000 households and their pets. Research is now showing that nano technology is responsible for infecting people with this disease everyday.

Morgellons? = I'm from Kentucky and I don't think that grows in this state? Nano technology? = I watched the super nanny program on FOX one time. Sorry, just a dumb old hillbilly here.
Blue Springs
Though Morgellons is very real so is the nano technology and "nanites" that affect humans - there are a lot of possible answers as to why they are not warning people, and some very valid opinions that lead to major conspiracy theories. Report Abuse

Why didn't the CDC implement procedures in all USA hospitals to eliminate MRSA by 99% like Norway did? Norway hospitals swab every patient before they are admitted to test for MRSA and then keep them strictly isolated for the protection of all, but not here, because of MONEY, so the MRSA spreads here Report Abuse
Newport Beach
Morgellons disease is still not understood and has been confused with other illnesses. It is confused most often with an illness called delusional parasitosis (DP). Morgellons causes a sensation of something crawling on the skin leading patinets to scratch and this scratching also causes scratch marks that distract the doctors from seeing the lesions caused by the disease. At least one scientist examining a skin biopsy, viewed with high magnification, has seen clumps of fibers in the skin. This suggests some illness may be causing the fibers to build up under the skin and may be responsible for other lesions and this illness may also be causing the distressing skin sensations. I am guessing that because Morgellons disease superficially resembles a psychiatric illness (DP), and Morgellons has not been defined adequately, the CDC may feel that they cannot accurately tell people about it and the CDC may feel that warning people about it may not prevent it. Also some dermatologists who have seen patients with this disease feel that many people with suspected Morgellons actually have another illness. It is very likely that some people who have symptoms of Morgellons disease actually do have something else. As of June 2006 CDC is investigating this illness and needs to establish diagnostic criteria to define Morgellons and separate it from other illnesses before it can discuss it with more certainty. CDC does not seem to be hiding the possibility that this is a real and not yet understood disease, but just cannot comment on it with certainty.

nano techology? what is that?
