To a point maybe be but cyclospora isn’t that kind of deal. You don’t develop long term immunity to it. There’s also other parasites in dirt that can negatively affect kids long term.
I will defer to you here, but in general I think USA has become germ averse in the name of health, and it is having an effect on the population overall to combat pathogens that otherwise would have little impact.

My pick your nose and chew your fingernails is in jest, kind of, but the wild sex part was not!

I’ll call out woke attacks when I see them regardless of who they were directed towards.
What in the actual **** are you talking about old man? Are you joking about the diarrhea or being sarcastic? You lost me a couple comments ago.

It was a response to stlhusker’s comments about a post about Hispanic field workers. He was painting someone else as a racist

He was triggered by me asking another poster for clarification on his/her post. I believe dingle may have early-onset Keyboard Warrior Syndrome (KWS) and can't resist providing input.

And here you are replying to a post that wasn’t directed to you. 😉. Have you ever worked with or around Hispanic laborers? Have you ever done hand labor in a farm field? I have. One of us knows what goes on in the real world.

Hand labor in a farm field? Haha I think 3/4's of this board detasseled. Between that, eating at street taco trucks, and picking fruit in my yard, I consider myself an expert on migrant farm labor.

You talk like you have some basic Ag knowledge or credibility, but you just assume I must have less than you do. I think it is your KWS showing, or simply narcissistic behavior in an attempt to boost your ego, or cover insecurity. Just let me know how you want to measure who might know more about agriculture in the 'real world'. Detasseling? Bean Walking? Farmable acres? Global agriculture? Hybrid seed production? Ag career? Ag education?

Right now I’m a hobby farmer. 250 acres of row crop. 60 acres of hay. 150 acres of pasture. A small registered cow herd. I still walk beans and spray my field margins and pastures. I hire the row crops sprayed and combined otherwise I do the rest myself. Work my own cattle, fix my own fence and do all the dirty work myself.

In my previous professional career I used my doctorate in a medical field to do potentially zoonotic disease investigations among other things. So yeah, I have a pretty damned good basis to comment. YOUR COMMENT about “Mexicans” was clearly intended to paint the poster you responded to as a racist. THAT is the problem here. Not my credibility on ag topics.

I don't have a dog in this fight. But that's a funny comment. Normally at this point, I will say that football season can't get here soon enough but this season I'm not so sure!

I'm gonna call ******** on your previous career being zoonotronic investigations. It's probably a half truth. Like you worked at the zoo.

Well, not a big zoo. Maybe the little one up in Royal, Nebraska.

Dingle was talking about Mexicans habits in the work place. I put in Feed mills at commercial Cattle yds for a living in Nebraska Wyoming Colorado and Kansas. I was around a lot of Mexicans . They are literally the most unsanitized people in the world.

Epidemiology was only part of my training and a small part of my work over the years. I’ve never worked at a zoo. You can believe what you want.

Bold claim. Some of the documentaries I've watched on India are pretty shocking. Been to Mexico and didn't see anything like that.

dinglefritz are you blind racism on this board all over
You can read racism in to things if you want. That’s the leftist way. The uncomfortable fact is that the Cyclospora and then Salmonella outbreaks came from products from Mexico. It’s also true that proper hygiene may be foreign to and at least difficult for field workers in Mexico. Just the facts.

Are Mexicans suffering a similar malady?

I bet not.

You don’t know for sure. Let’s do it this way Dingle and myself have worked around unskilled Mexicans . Have you ? If not shut the fk up .
Actually he has a point. Most probably have some resistance built up to a lot of bugs. They might not show clinical signs but can be unknowingly shedding the organisms in their feces. Salmonella typhimurium is notorious for asymptomatic shedders. Thankfully most of us don’t have to drink the water they do in most of Central and South America.

I saw it in India. Its by far the grossest place I've ever been and I've been to Plattsmouth
Ehhh. Plattsmouth isn’t that bad. Go find some of the shacks and trailers being used as rentals in small towns. I’m sure many towns have what Plattsmouth has. I’ve never been to India but the stories are horrific.

I listened to a Navy Seal/medical officer talk about doing disease investigations in Afghanistan. He said they flipped multiple villages by figuring out what was killing their kids and helping them grow their own food. Goat diseases were big. Salmonella contaminating wells etc. He said their loyalty couldn’t be bought by force or handing them currency.

I was lucky enough to bring back Giardia ...it was a great way to prepare me for a colonoscopy
You couldn’t pay me to go back to Mexico. Yeah some of the resorts are nice but there’s too many great places to visit in this country and Europe. Mexico is cheap. And there’s a reason for that.

i misread his post . I took as he was being critical of some of our posts to the sanitary habits of the Mexican people.

I go visit some buddies in San Carlos sonara . It’s about 5 hours south of Tucson on the coast along the sea of Cortez . A lot of retirees from Canada and the US. It’s a nice setting but I am extremely careful what I eat and only bottled water that I get from a Walmart in a nearby city.
