ロシア経由独立系:イラク米兵100人「肺炎」:
阿修羅戦争掲示板既出の朝日・AP報道と類似するが、人名は既出、ドイツで死んだニューシェあり。
軍医総監(surgeon general)当局の「若い兵士が肺炎で死ぬのは珍しいが、1998 to 2002, 17とある部分は、新情報である。
やはり、劣化ウラン起因であろう。

2 more U.S. soldiers develop severe pneumonia, put on ventilators
01.08.2003 [10:27]
Two more U.S. soldiers serving in the Middle East were placed on ventilators this week after developing severe pneumonia, Army officials said Thursday.
Since March 1, approximately 100 troops have been afflicted with the illness, according to a news release from the Army Surgeon General. Of those cases, 14 have been placed on respirators and two have died ― including Missouri National Guard Spc. Joshua Neusche of Montreal, in Camden County.
"The 14 cases were geographically dispersed and came from different units," the release stated, adding there's no evidence soldiers were exposed to chemical or biological weapons, environmental toxins or severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS).
Neusche's parents, Mark and Cynthia Neusche, say doctors told them their son's liver, kidneys and muscles broke down ― occurrences the surgeon general's office say are rare in cases of pneumonia.
"There's definitely something out there," Mark Neusche said Friday. "We need to find out what it is and get it fixed. The numbers are climbing."
The Army has deployed two epidemiology units to study the outbreak. One team has been sent to the Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany, where the majority of the severe cases have been treated. The other team will be sent to undisclosed areas of Iraq. The teams are looking for similarities among the cases.
The surgeon general's office says young, healthy soldiers dying from pneumonia is rare, but does occur. From 1998 to 2002, 17 soldiers have died from pneumonia or complications from the illness.
