About 15- to 17-hundred more Hmong refugees are expected in Minnesota as part of a massive resettlement from Thailand. But the resettlement process remains slow because of tuberculosis cases identified earlier this year among the refugees. Two confirmed cases and four suspected cases were identified in Minnesota. Ann O'Fallon, the refugee coordinator for the state Department of Health, says all of those patients are being treated. The Centers for Disease Control began a more intensive screening process to treat the refugees before they enter the United States, causing the slowdown in resettlement. O'Fallon says the delay has been difficult.
