Environment US bed bug outbreak difficult to cure
America is facing a bed bug outbreak of explosive proportions - and the resistance of the blood suckers to commonly used pesticides means there is no magical cure, public health and pest control experts warned today. Bed bug outbreaks in the US have tripled since 2005, a conference put on by the Environmental Protection Agency was told. "It's become a trajectory. We are at the point similar to the Aids virus where everyone knows someone who has had bed bugs or have had it themselves," said Dini Miller, the urban pest management specialist for the state of Virginia. "Right now we are kind of at a loss at what the best answer is," she said. "We didn't realise how tough they would be."

Then how 'bout park benches..... no, they got all kinds of bugs to worry about... just no bed.
I got it! The plastic wrapped hermetically sealed beds from the hospital! (or a clean lifestyle)

I think what they were trying to say was, there was a period of time when Aids was one of those things that people had heard of.. Then it was suddenly in the spotlight because everyone knew someone that had it. And that is what is going on with bed bugs.. We've all heard of bed bugs, now it's starting to hit home for many people. Other than that, I wouldn't read too much into it.
