Mysterious Origins

AFM: CDC identifies 31 states with 116 confirmed cases of polio-like disease [More]
None of our "news" gatekeepers are mentioning why here / why now. Where was it before 2014? How did it get here and did its spread track with any other known "dispersal" patterns? Birds, mosquitos, something else...? Doesn't that deserve to be explored, understood and communicated to a "self-governing" people so they can properly coordinate effective public health responses with their representatives?

Also according to CNN "Parents accuse CDC of not reporting children's deaths from polio-like AFM", two deaths known so far.

No one who's watched the CDC's inept handing of biolabs, pathogen samples, or Ebloa in the US is in the least surprised, although I hadn't noticed that the infamous Thomas Frieden was been arrested for sexual assault last summer.

Quite a few cases in Minnesota, is it the Somalians?

Zero cases in California, or zero cases were 'officially reported'?
