THE KLINGERMAN VIRUS IS NOT A HOAX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  Author:  31151  Category:(Discussion) Created:(10/11/2001 7:52:00 PM)

I just talked to my aunt and she said where she works(she works at a nursing home) there is a hospital about a block away and last night there was a woman who came in and she had gotten a blue package in the mail that contained a sponge and when she opened it some sort of vapors came out of it and made her deathly sick!!!!!!!!! The hospital is in Bluefield Virginia. They had the whole hospital quarantined(sp?) last night until way early in the morning and now they are passing out flyers with warnings on them.

I don't know if maybe someone took it upon themselves to pull this prank or what is really going on but she called to warn us and I wanted to warn you all too!

I told her that everyone who had an email address had received this at one time or another but everyone thought it was a hoax. But she said it wasn't. I don't know if maybe someone got the idea from the internet or what. But it is legit and I wanted to tell you all to be careful.

Date: 10/11/2001 8:25:00 PM  From Authorid: 28848    So its still just a hoax???  
Date: 10/11/2001 8:26:00 PM  From Authorid: 11341    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has recently received several inquiries concerning an e-mail message about people who have been infected with "Klingerman virus" after opening gift packages delivered to them in the mail. According to the e-mail message, a number of people became ill with a viral infection after handling a sponge contained in a package marked, "A gift for you from the Klingerman Foundation."

The e-mail is a hoax. There is no "Klingerman virus," and the information in the e-mail notice is untrue. If you receive an e-mail message about "Klingerman virus," please do not forward it to others.

Although the e-mail message is a hoax, if you are concerned about the contents of a package you receive in the mail, contact your local post office. It is a criminal offense to send potentially hazardous agents through the mail for the purpose of deliberately causing harm to human health. When such an incident occurs, the local emergency response system should be activated by dialing 911 in most communities; in communities without 911 systems, local law enforcement authorities should be notified. The local FBI field office and local and state public health authorities also should be notified.

Date: 10/11/2001 8:27:00 PM  From Authorid: 11341    btw not trying to say your aunt is lying i was just trying to find out what the side effects where from the virus  
Date: 10/11/2001 8:50:00 PM  From Authorid: 27046    Release Me according to the one site that I looked at the virus doesn't even exist....its not like Anthrax a real thing.....someone made up the name Klingerman...period....there is no info anywhere that tells you what it does to teh body or how you get it or what form of "virus" it is....I would say that says it all...  
Date: 10/11/2001 9:48:00 PM  From Authorid: 16845    very freaky!  
Date: 10/11/2001 9:59:00 PM  From Authorid: 3125    It is some of our own people who will do things such as this at a time like this..It's as if it's not bad enough to be struck with tragedy,but we have the "nuts" to look out for..  
Date: 10/12/2001 3:50:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 31151    Yes it is truly a very sick individual!!!!!!  
Date: 10/12/2001 4:01:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 31151    By the way some people I think have misunderstood the post. My Aunt does not have a computer nor has she been on one that I know about until she comes to my house and wants to see what new beanies are out. She got a flyer from a police officer who was standing on the corner as she was leaving work. This is serious and I think it takes a SICk individual to do something like this. As I said above......I think it is someone who got the IDEA from the hoax that was going around. Just my opinion. And for those who took what I said serious..........THANK YOU!!!!! I know my Aunt would not LIE. She wouldn't have called us and told us about it if it hadn't happened. Seeing that she lives in a completely different state. Just be careful!!!!!!!  
Date: 10/12/2001 4:26:00 AM  From Authorid: 38270    I agree...I know my Aunt would never lie. She DOES NOT HAVE A COMPUTER SO it's not like she got the email and was calling to warn us about it. THIS ACTUALLY HAPPENED WHERE SHE LIVES!!!!! And NO we are not trying to say that the KLINGERMAN virus is real but that someone may have gotten the idea from it!!!!!!! We know the email going around about that virus is a hoax. BUT THIS DID HAPPEN. It takes a truly sick person who would do this!!!!!!
