                FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION

                   (Eric S. Wiener, on briefs), for appellant. Appellant submitting on
                   briefs.

                   (John E. McIntosh, Jr., on brief), for appellees. Appellees
                   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.
