    It used to be quite common when I was a kid (at least I seem to remember people getting it). I hadn't heard of it for years. Is this yet another disease being re-introduced because we don't screen immigrants or visitors to the country?

    I got the impression from the report that it's been around for years, just under the media's radar.

    I mentioned this to Mrs Rebbonk last night. Apparently, she had it as a child.
