#ZikaVirus Public Health #ExpandMedicaidNow

My Friends today I am going to discuss The #ZikaVirus and its affects on an invisible population. The Invisible population is We The Uninsured in Fl. Currently 5 Counties in Florida are under Public Health Emergency.
The #ZikaVirus is a mosquito born virus. It originated in South America. The Virus can be transmitted by mosquito bite and  Sexually also. So please be responsible and use a condom. It travels through the blood stream.
The harm of this virus is it causes BIRTH DEFECTS in Pregnant Women. So This is another good reason to #ExpandMedicaidNow. So all have access to Doctors !

Diseases like this are public health nightmares waiting to happen ! Especially with the poor, sick, and Uninsured ! .

For Example We got lucky with SARS, BIRD FLU, and Ebola ! But next time maybe not so ! In the early 1900’s Typhoid struck*** ! It was spread by an actual person Mary Mallon – WHO WOULD Become “TYPHOID MARY”  an Irish immigrant cook who killed 51 people .
Keep in mind Mary Mallon was very ignorant to what she did. ***Seource Wikipedia
But now we the Uninsured face exposure to super viruses that could. wipe us out !
We deserve access to Doctors not just Emergency Rooms ! But Governors like mne Rick Scott (R) Fl continue to ignore the problem .**It  is so bad in fact funding for Free Clinics was cut from $9 Million Dollars to $4.5 Million Dollars ! In Our State Budget ! **Seource Miami Hearld Sun Feb 21,2016 Micheal Auslen.

So What does Gov Scott and like minded people want we the Uninsured and sick to do ? We may not have Free Clinics or County ones to go to ! This due to cuts in LIP LOW INCOME POOL FUNDS.  THE LIP funds are for Hospitals, and Clinics to treat the Uninsured ! But if both close and a disease outbreak happens then what ? I will Tell you what ! Deaths by the thousands then millions ! On whose hands will it be ? Of Course Gov Scott who takes lessons in penny pinching, from Gov Rick Snyder (R) of Michigan.  The Political Typhoid Mary !  Is Gov Snyder a man who knowingly to save money poisoned his own people. He allowed The City of Flint Mi, to use Polluted Tap water with lead in it ! Thus causing deaths and birth defects to innocent people ! Gov Snyder did #ExpandMedicaidNow and his people need it ! Unlike Gov Scott sitting on his hands doing nothing !

Causing people like myself ,Amy ,and Gen Rodriquez to beg and borrow to stay alive. As we have no Healthcare at all. Gen needs $10,000.00 a month worth of Respiratory  Medicines. She can’t get them and is using over the counter remedies. The reason we live this way is our Governor Rick Scott (R) willfully refuses to #ExpandMedicaidNow ! Leaving 1 Million in Fl at risk !

So if a major disease outbreak occurs ,that can not be controlled then what ? No Hospitals, or Clinics then what ? I will tell you what Death for many ! The Typhoid Mary’s will be Gov Scott and others like him ! People living in ignorance to reality !  Yes Gov Scott you are the Modern Typhoid Mary ! A Tag I wouldn’t want !

But We can do something We must #ExpandMedicaidNow to save lives ! Then we have a fighting chance against outbreaks ! It is  simple preventative Medicine  just #ExpandMedicaidNow !

Thank You
God Bless
