Of het nu expats, massatoeristen of militairen op vredesmissie in Afghanistan betreffen, wij stellen ons bewust of onbewust bloot aan exotische ziekteverwekkers. De geschiedenis leert dat migratie de mens eigen is en de oorzaak is geweest van dodelijke epidemieën met talloze slachtoffers. Ook vandaag zorgt migratie voor verspreiding van infecties en epidemieën. De recente globalisering heeft tot gevolg dat huidaandoeningen getalsmatig de derde groep van aandoeningen zijn onder reizigers die ziek terugkomen uit ontwikkelingslanden. Infecties die huidafwijkingen veroorzaken zijn een stigma waarvoor de omgeving instinctmatig terugdeinst. Dit heeft niet alleen gevolgen voor de betrokkene, maar ook voor de verdere verspreiding van de ziekte.

Clayton Pratt grew up in the Leave It to Beaver ’50s and woke up in the Jimi Hendrix ’60s. We meet Clayton, AWOL and handcuffed, in a military air terminal in the Philippine Islands. He left Vietnam on R&R, plagued by recollections of TET, shrapnel, midnight watch, murder and rape. He went out to get drunk, stay drunk, do drunken things and to blame it all on the drunkenness. He has a weeping wound on his side. He has visions of Jesus hanging on the cross above him. He remembers Tiwala, a mysterious girl, and he assesses his surroundings, his circumstances, and the events that led to his present situation. War does not end when the bullets stop, he realizes, and it’s not the Cong that kill you. It’s not the shrapnel or bullets or napalm that kill you. War kills you, and it doesn’t even know you.
