Don't bet it won't!
It’s a low rate infectious disease, you actually have to be in contact with body fluids.
If it ever became airborne...
No. Whitey’s immune to it. /S
More seriously, we used to understand the concepts of public health and quarantining of immigrants. Now, Obama and the Dems seemed to have forgotten these things, or at least submerged them under the imagined importance of an open border.
With the Kenyan’s Kiddie Krusade invasion in full spead ahead mode it isn’t “could” it spread here, it’s WHEN.
Yep
I think it could and would be catastrophic. Here wide open borders no one is allowed to look into peoples business if they ain’t a wasp. Our geothermal care system is crippled by obama care
Only for a short while.
Don't bet it won't!
Fantasy? Maybe....
If it wasn’t a “human rights violation” the dimwits would enforce a quarantine.
JFK...Miami International...the Border Station at Tijuana? Yup,you betcha!
We have over 12 million people that snuck across our border illegally and no one knows where half of them are.
We had 19 terrorist hijackers roaming around th country learning how to murder 3000 Americans and no one knew who they were or what they were doing.
Yes Ebola and anything else can get here...........
With the opening of our southern border and the influx of illegals bringing in that and a multitude of other diseases, it will only be a matter of time.
I think geographically limited outbreaks of ebola are possible in the United States. Necessary for this to occur would be very close human contact with sharing of bodily fluids intentional or not, as well as poor sanitation and a reluctance to go to the doctor when early symptoms arise. That could be poor slum areas with recent immigrants crammed too many to an apartment, or it could be a bath house in The Castro District. I suspect it skews heavily toward urban.
This is what FEMA is counting on. That is why they are arming.
If it will knock us from First world status to third world levels, the kenyan would welcome it in a heart beat
Aids spread from Africa. Other diseases can as well.
Ebola is a virus that is too efficient a killer for its own good. Even in Africa, with no medical attention at all, outbreaks burn themselves out.
It kills so thoroughly there are no survivors to continue spreading it.
There is, BTW, a perfectly native virus with symptoms not totally dissimilar to those of Ebola.
Hantavirus. Killed my sister’s best friend in CO. Works much faster the Ebola. Dead in 72 hours from exposure.
Generally spread by inhaling dust with mouse urine on it.
The article is incorrect in saying that medical establishments would quickly recognize and isolate Ebola patients. It is not a disease practitioners ever see outside one or two lectures. It would present as a mystery disease at first, another vague flu-like collection of symptoms. Samples sent to CDC take longer than the movies to be analyzed. By the time it has become a hemorrhagic case in 4-5 days, it is too late for that patient and an unknown number have been exposed.
The article is correct in stating that is conveyed by bodily fluid contact. It is incorrect in saying that being in the same room with an Ebola patient with no precautions is safe. Bodily fluids include droplets, which are airborne, and the virus has been shown to be transmitted via airborne droplets in primates and is theorized in human outbreaks. Also, the virus can survive on contaminated surfaces, wet or dry.
Hmm. Eight or 9 hour flight. Anything is possible. Of course those with white privilege invented it to kill black people. HUH?
