submitting on brief.
Barbara Ellen Carey appeals a decision of the Workers’ Compensation Commission
finding that (1) tuberculosis is an ordinary disease of life; and (2) she failed to prove by clear and
convincing evidence that she contracted tuberculosis through her employment with Arlington
Hospital, Inc. We have reviewed the record and the commission’s opinion and find no error in
the commission’s decision. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the commission in
its final opinion. See Carey v. The Arlington Hosp., Inc., VWC File No. 170-32-67 (June 18,
2007).
Affirmed.
