Tradescanthia Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 It used to be kept in a state of readiness for such things as smallpox or Lassa fever coming into the country.

Tradescanthia Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 It has been a house for a few years now so all the contagious cases will have to be sent somewhere else. Ecclesall for instance??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
