That reminds me, how many people did Bill Ayers say they had to kill to acheive their fundamental transformation of society?
Tom Clancy had a story about weaponized Ebola years ago in one of his novels.The name of which I can’t remember now.
In the story a terrorist group had kidnapped people and purposely contaminated them with the Ebola virus.
They then harvested there organs,Mostly the liver If I recall accurately.Then placed the virus into aerosol spray cans.
These cans were then left at airports around the country and by the time the first person was discovered to be carrying Ebola it was already to late.
They already had an epidemic growing.
That was a great book.I just hate it when fiction has the possibility of becoming fact.Especially now.
I heard a doctor (Dr. Elaina George) on the Bill Cunningham show last night. She said this Ebola isn’t acting like Ebola has in the past. She also commented that she’s not sure it isn’t spread via air (i.e. without direct contact), especially with the way it seems to be spreading and ‘acting’ with the current outbreak. She mentioned the pigs-to-macaque monkey study which did seem to show ZEBOV (Ebola Zaire - the deadliest strain of Ebola and the strain currently on the loose in this outbreak) infecting the monkeys without direct contact.
The two patients who will be at Emory (Writebol is on the way or soon to be, I think) are not the first Ebola cases in the US - they are the first human cases, but it’s been here in primates (Reston & there is an Ebola-Reston strain named after that incident).
Dr. George is EXTREMELY concerned about what is coming across the southern border. Potentially it isn’t diseases that we have been vaccinated against that are the most concerning, but ones like TB which have developed multiple drug resistance, or tropical diseases such as Dengue fever that doctors may have difficulty diagnosing and there is no treatment for them.

If what is intimated here is actually true, that would mean we’ve got a DOD that is at war with the people of America. Why is the DOD involved with viruses?

“The primary Ebola strain being spread right now (as there are 2) was bioengineered using US Department of Defense (via USAMRIID), Monsanto, Alnylam, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Merck and Pfizer funding through a pharmaceutical company called Tekmira based in Vancouver Canada. A common Ebola-Zaire strain from West Africa was used as the base, but bioengeneered to become a respiratory illness (a hybrid of Ebola-Zaires & Lassa Hemorrhagic Fever, weaponized via USAMRIID at Fort Detrick) becoming a genetic variant of the original strain, which allowed for airborne human-to-human transmission, an extended incubation period (to increase spread/threat), and a slightly toned down virility (to have the ideal initial wanted mortality rate (~40%)). “
Is there any evidence of this actually being true?
One thing I actually do believe based on the anecdotal evidence reported by people on the ground in SL is that this version of Ebola ISN’T the Zaire strain and that it IS likely that it is transmitted as an aerosol.
I also believe it may be transmittable during incubation, which explains how people exhibiting no symptoms are allowed to ride in communal taxis or on the back of someone’s motorcycle.
The coconut telegraph in Africa works pretty well, so everyone knows about the disease and what is happening. No way someone allows a symptomatic passenger into a communal taxi, especially in Lagos, or any other African capitol.
This article, without evidence, borders on irresponsible.

I keep wondering how people like the author come up with saying so much they know ain’t so.
Please peddle them elsewhere. Go to Democratic Underground, where it properly belongs.
