Why hasn't the CDC warned the American people about the new infectious disease called Morgellons?

Morgellons? = I'm from Kentucky and I don't think that grows in this state?

Nano technology? = I watched the super nanny program on FOX one time.

Sorry, just a dumb old hillbilly here.

Morgellons disease is still not understood and has been confused with other illnesses. It is confused most often with an illness called delusional parasitosis (DP).

Morgellons causes a sensation of something crawling on the skin leading patinets to scratch and this scratching also causes scratch marks that distract the doctors from seeing the lesions caused by the disease. At least one scientist examining a skin biopsy, viewed with high magnification, has seen clumps of fibers in the skin. This suggests some illness may be causing the fibers to build up under the skin and may be responsible for other lesions and this illness may also be causing the distressing skin sensations.

I am guessing that because Morgellons disease superficially resembles a psychiatric illness (DP), and Morgellons has not been defined adequately, the CDC may feel that they cannot accurately tell people about it and the CDC may feel that warning people about it may not prevent it.

Also some dermatologists who have seen patients with this disease feel that many people with suspected Morgellons actually have another illness. It is very likely that some people who have symptoms of Morgellons disease actually do have something else.

As of June 2006 CDC is investigating this illness and needs to establish diagnostic criteria to define Morgellons and separate it from other illnesses before it can discuss it with more certainty.

CDC does not seem to be hiding the possibility that this is a real and not yet understood disease, but just cannot comment on it with certainty.

nano techology? what is that?
