CDC Confirms Patient In Dallas Has The Ebola Virus

[Ptarmigan]

They should have done that a month ago.  That asshole that died in Texas flew in through Belgium.

Too bad we can't do the same for terrorists.

Exactly.

We can quit our bitchen about Isis wanting woman to cover their heads and faces, bet you the manufactures of surgical face masks  have a crew on stand by to  amp up the line that is fashionable and will come in 60 different colors for men and woman and children.     

Who could object to that ???

First the dentists, few outside the home see your teeth, it don't matter if the teeth turn black or green, grow in  upside down or not, no need for braces or replacement teeth.   

Company's that make cosmetics , no need for lipstick or wrinkle cream in that area of the face. However I would guess the call for eye makeup would go sky high. 

Then will we have to go to the Asians in regards to hand shaking,  will we now have to just nod our head, or dip in curtsy to another woman ?  No hand shake as the disease is still among us .

We are told to use bleach to disinfect our homes,   great until  the bugs become immune to bleach, then what ???

Now the disease goes away much as an enemy  will beat their war drums, scare the living crap out of everyone and then one morning be gone.    Wake up and 2 years later here it is again stronger and  nasty then before.

Who is to say this man lied come here.    True in his home land he helped a woman get to hospital, some weeks before  he was to come to the USA but he was not a doctor and as life went on and he felt well when  he filled out the forms.  How would he know what he was exposed to unless diagnosed by Doctors and lab tests ?

Any of us exposed to   long incubation period for a disease would have done the same.     This man is being blamed for something that was outside his ability to control or even know about that was growing in his body.

To try to pin the problem on one man and say he lied to bring the disease here is gate out the back for all that fell asleep at the switch.   

So what is this 1989  lab  that was working with and  on monkeys with the Ebola disease that got loose and caused havoc in VA.???   Some were I remember reading about the incident and forgot until a half a dozen people reminded me of it.

He knew the woman he helped had Ebola, she was sent home from a hospital to die because they couldn't treat her. He flat out lied when he boarded the plane.

W.H.O. doctor warns of future Ebola outbreaks if drastic changes aren't made to check travelers
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2790154/w-h-o-doctor-warns-future-ebola-outbreaks-drastic-changes-aren-t-check-travelers.html

A World Health Organization doctor who spent 31 days in Nigeria says its no surprise that someone has finally been diagnosed with Ebola on U.S. soil, and that more cases will follow if drastic changes aren't made.

Dr. Aileen Marty was worried specifically about the lax standards for checking people on entry to the U.S., illustrating the point with a story about her return to the country through Miami International Airport.

'I get to the kiosk...mark the fact that I've been to Nigeria and nobody cares, nobody stopped me,' she said.

Really appalling.

You should really get your facts straight before you make a post around here.

On the form obtained by the Associated Press and confirmed by a Liberian government official, Duncan answered "no" to questions about whether he had cared for an Ebola patient or touched the body of someone who had died in an area affected by Ebola.

<snip>

On Sept. 15, days before he left Liberia for the United States, Duncan -- a LIberian national -- helped carry 19-year-old Marthalene Williams into a taxi to go to the hospital after her family was unable to get an ambulance, The New York Times reports, quoting family and neighbors.

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/10/02/liberia-ebola-patient-thomas-duncan-airport-screening/16591753/

He also helped carry his land lord's Ebola ridden son to an ambulance before that.

This bullish*t Progressive way of thinking...the whole "well how do we know for sure he lied or came in contact with Ebola...we can't just stop him from coming in"...is what's got us in the potential mess we're in right now.  He was a carrier when he stepped onto that plane in Monrovia.  He potentially infected everyone on the plane...anyone he came in contact with in the Brussels airport...and at D/FW as well.  Any money he used to pay for items...how many more times has that been touched and passed long?

But you let ideology trump common sense...just like this administration and that has set this country and you and me up for potentially getting this crap.

But you go ahead and keep on defending Patient Zero.

Now they are saying that this second victim took a flight from Cleveland to Dallas the day before she started feeling ill.  The CDC is looking for the 130 people that were on that flight.

What the **** is wrong with people?  This person knowingly traveled after being exposed to a person with Ebola.  Are people trying to spread this disease?

Trying or not, it's getting spread. Remember some NBC News employee violated a voluntary quarantine and is now under an enforced quarantine.

The nurse's boyfriend is also sick.  No word on if he has any specific symptoms.

There's more--Frontier Airlines used that aircraft for five more flights before they removed it from service!

Yes, and why weren't they put under armed guard to enforce their quarantine like the family of Duncan.

Obama to Hold Ebola Meeting With Cabinet

12:13 PM, Oct 15, 2014• By DANIEL HALPER

President Obama won't be traveling to New Jersey and Connecticut later today, as he had been planning to do. There he was going to raise money for Democrats up for reelection in November. Instead, Obama is going to be hosting Cabinet members for a meeting on Ebola.
 
White House aide Dan Pfeiffer tweets: "Later this afternoon,POTUS will convene a meeting at the White House of cabinet agencies coordinating the government’s Ebola response."

He cancelled a fundraiser.  If he cancels a round of golf, it's TEOTWAWKI.

The disinfecting process for Ebola workers wearing Hazmat suits usually requires hosing the suits with bleach.  I don't know how thoroughly cleaned airplanes get, but I'm not willing to put money on it.

It's time to invest in nitrile gloves and respiratory masks.

[jtyangel]

Hate to say it, but it's probably time to forcibly quarantine anyone with contact at this point. They will not contain it unless they get over their politically correct bullshit and that containment applies to all regardless of race or gender. Enough. People obviously aren't ethical enough to shelter at home themselves so enough of this crap before all of us exposure or not have to shelter in place.
