You might want to look at "Morgellons" and see what the micro-biologists are saying. Before you make any disparaging remarks please watch Video # 2 from the SuperBug site. The proof is in the film, and their conclusions are based on more than just theory. They tie it in to how it's possibly contacted and spread.
