I know a doctor who works at multiple hospitals, she have talked about how there are a lot more infections and strange ones, in the rural population, things that jump from animals, that she never sees in the urban population. Maybe there's just a general problem with hygiene ?

> things that jump from animals My physician father was involved with a case where a drunken idiot decided to go play on a beach filled with elephant seals. The deep tusk wound he earned in one thigh had the local internists hitting the books to figure out what rare and exotic marine bugs had infected the fellow... IIRC the guy lived, but he was very ill. Sometimes I wonder if he lives on in textbook case studies (with the requisite black bars over his eyes in any photos).
