Infections from the Gulf War Forgotten

The VA -Advisory Committee on Gulf War veterans fails to address this problem because less than 10% effected. What if you or a love one is a vet who returned with this infection you would want a program in place to address this illness.

Why hasn't the VA-Research Advisory Committee on GWI not made a recommendation on infectious diseases from the Middle East in the last two years ?

The nine diseases examined were bacterial diarrhea caused by campylobacter, salmonella or shigella, brucellosis, leishmaniasis, malaria, Q fever, tuberculosis and West Nile fever.

"For Gulf War veterans, we know that a number had these kinds of diseases," Dr. Kilpatrick said. "The numbers are very small, fortunately. For today's deployments, the numbers continue to be very small. These diseases can have long-term negative health effects, but if diagnosed early they can easily be treated.

We have been unable to find the NGWRC or Gulf War Representives of American Legion, DAV or VFW speak up on this issue in the last year. Did the forget ?
We must contact the VA headquarters. Did the Clinic Doctors and other Medical Staff get this inform when the VA-Office of Education has failed to address this subject since 2003.
