Preliminary results for the patient from Stargard indicate that it is not a toxin-producing strain. It is definitely not cholera, the spokesperson for the Chief Sanitary Inspector told PAP, referring to the case of a woman who was admitted to the provincial hospital in Szczecin on Saturday with suspected cholera.

"The preliminary results we have indicate that this is not a toxin-producing strain. It is definitely not cholera; the final results will be confirmed on Monday," the spokesman for the Chief Sanitary Inspector told PAP on Friday.

On Saturday, a patient from the hospital in Stargard who was diagnosed with cholera bacteria was admitted to the provincial hospital in Szczecin.

A case of cholera in an elderly woman in Stargard has been confirmed by two independent laboratories. Health officials are investigating the source of the illness. Neither the patient nor any of her family members had traveled abroad. The patient's condition, suspected of having cholera, is described as stable.

A total of 26 people who had contact with the patient were in quarantine. Fourteen of them completed their quarantine on Wednesday, and the remaining individuals completed their quarantine on Friday. None of them reported deteriorating health or any alarming symptoms.

Besides, even if, as you say, the disease was imported, where does this strong belief come from that it was brought about by immigrants, and not, for example, tourists or seasonal workers? It's the holiday season, some people go on vacation outside Poland, others come to us for relaxation, and still others to pick strawberries, for example. Strawberries are good this year; who do you think is picking them? If it weren't for economic migrants, you'd be paying 100 złoty per kilogram. As I said, it takes a lot of ill will to link this with migration.

"However, the presence of the bacterium itself has been confirmed, and it shouldn't be present in Poland" – microorganisms know no borders and can be transmitted in various ways, in the case of cholera, primarily through dirty water. It's not true that this disease shouldn't be present in Poland, as it occurs naturally in our territory, and only due to high vaccination rates in the population do outbreaks occur. If someone has malicious intentions, they will even link natural disasters to migrants. The question is, to what end?

PiS members have learned this instilling in others and it is in their genes.

I don't expect any special thinking from people who don't see the evil and threat of mass migration, so I'll explain what the article on this topic says. A woman from Stargard was diagnosed with the Vibrio bacterium (the cause of cholera). Further tests showed, fortunately, that it was a strain that doesn't produce toxins, so the infection wouldn't develop into the disease known as cholera. However, the presence of the bacterium itself has been confirmed, and it shouldn't be in Poland. It was imported!

Kaczyński and Pawłowicz, among others, were repeatedly invited by Owskiak as honorary guests, but neither accepted. Festival organizers repeatedly offered their consent, but PiS supporters rejected or even bit back. To conclude my lengthy rant, I'd like to cordially invite you and other opponents to the Pol'and'Rock Festival, so you can see for yourself how many lies are circulating about it in the opinions of right-wing politicians and commentators.

And one more thing: if anyone has politicized this festival, it's the so-called right-wing politicians, who constantly fabricate falsehoods and slander. This action provokes reactions. With the PiS government bending over backwards to prevent the event (an increased risk, of course), it's no wonder attendees, to put it mildly, don't like PiS. Long ago, before PiS launched its hate campaign against the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity (WOŚP), the festival collaborated with politicians from all sides, inviting them, for example, for interviews at the Academy of Fine Arts.

[continued thought] Over the dozen or so editions of the festival I've attended, I've heard political overtones two or three times, but these slogans were always raised by participants or guests, never by the organizers. This festival is for everyone; it's about music, friendship, and respect for others. No one brings up politics there, and if someone does shout "fuck you," it's from themselves, because they clearly have those views and reasons for shouting. The festival itself is apolitical.

And who's barking here? And don't lie so brazenly! The festival you're talking about isn't funded by money, it has a ton of wealthy sponsors, it doesn't have to take anything from money, and it doesn't, which has already been proven against slanderers like you in court. Secondly, the festival has nothing to do with politics; it's you, in your PiS delusions, who label it political. I personally am a Konfa voter, and I've been going to Polandrock for many years, and somehow I don't see anything political there.

A new case and suspicion of the disease in Lublin. Quarantine, testing, and isolation are required. Let's not underestimate this threat.

Is it just regular salmonella? Or a new, unknown strain of a new disease originating from 8* people who bark at each other even at festivals with money from cans.

cholera...

If this isn't shit then what the hell is it?!

speak out piss!

2025-07-25 15:15:36

So what, PiS yobs? You've already floated theories about her contracting cholera from immigrants. Perhaps you could just as well apologize for your blatant slander and inciting innocent people?
