Life is tough. It is a lot tougher when you’re stupid.

Bad decisions are supposed to have bad consequences.

Stupid question. Citizenship?

Part of the gimmedatstuf gang if not born to it she learned fast. Stupid dolt, doesn’t she know how to cleanup herself?

That’s a good article on Duncan’s ‘family’ and well worth reading.

Actually, she is right in lime with several experts on this forum that are insisting it is impossible to catch 3rd hand, and can only be transmitted via blood contact, They are saying the vomit, sweat, snot, etc is harmless.

Personally, I don’t believe that, but I am not an expert like the ones posting in other threads. I am of the belief there will be 5 active cases clustered around this family and eventually the building will have to be demolished and hauled away in much the same way asbestos is removed.

Reston Monkey Virus was an airborne virus.

So far no human Ebola virus has been.

I think that needs to be done. Incinerate it. However, they need to stay put, failure on their part to understand this is evidence of belligerent stupidity.

“How did he get it?”

Duncan shared a house with a family in Liberia. The 19 yr old pregnant daughter that lived in the house became seriously ill and Duncan helped carry her to the hospital. They were turned away because the hospital had no more room. They carried her back home and later on she died. That’s how Duncan was exposed to the virus, by helping to carry the sick young woman who shared the house he lived in.

You mean this one?

http://ispub.com/IJPRM/2/1/12768

I had almost forgotten about it.

with the article that contains this encouraging squib:

The most well known epidemics of filovirus occurred in Zaire and Sudan in 197617-20. More than 600 cases were reported from these two outbreaks, with mortality rates of 88% in Zaire and 53% in Sudan. Both epidemics began with a first patient (called the index case) receiving treatment at a local medical clinic. The virus was transmitted by injections from used contaminated syringes.

When Ebola infects a human host, the person’s immune system shuts down and the person dies from hemorrhages coming from all the body’s orifices. Tissue oxygenation is interrupted, causing critical organ failure (parenchymal) or clinical shock. The infected person has a very high fever, accompanied by a bad headache. This early stage mimics malaria or typhoid and thus the disease often remains undiagnosed.

Then signs of Ebola start to appear. An Ebola patient can have blood standing in droplets on the eyelids and running from the tear ducts down the face. Blood can flow spontaneously from the nose, mouth, vagina, and rectum. The testicles swell up and are often destroyed. Ebola causes people to vomit masses of black blood with a distinctive appearance of “coffee grounds.” As blood vessels burst and blood seeps into the skin, a spotty, bumpy rash spreads across the body, while small, star-like hemorrhages appear beneath the skin. There is incredible abdominal pain that cannot be relieved. Finally, after about 10 days, most sufferers mercifully fall into a coma and die.

That’s the one. And that description is consistent with what Preston reported in “The Hot Zone.” At the end, there can be violent convulsions that spray infected tissue all over the place, too. There are about 100 MILLION virus particles in each drop of blood...and as few as 4 - 10 of those particles can infect the next victim.

Reports would have you believe dallas is calm. Even the area near the ivy apartments. the wife says some doc on fox said cdc is doing a great job of containment and there will be no outbreak.

I’m so relieved /s

Just wondering: What is the immigration status of the woman and other family members in quarantine?

The more I read about this tragic story about these people from Liberia, the more I wonder if this is a classic example of chain immigration: One person gets a green card, and that person starts getting visas and green cards for a long line of family members.

Just wondering.

I have read that they are all here on expired visas. How Ebola Duncan got in I don’t know. Probably like obungo’s children, just walked in and nobody said a damn thing.

I wonder where that picture of him with the cell phone came from?

The daughter seems to maybe have half a brain.... the mother has not yet figured out how to flush the toilets.

you can probably thank the 14th amendment for the kids who will grow up to be fully trained gimmedats.

Hopefully someone will shoot me if I get to that stage. Or hand my a gun.

ANOTHER question. I wonder what the knowledge of those circumstances do to the mind.....especially of the mother of the children. She knows her children and she are waiting to manifest symptoms and thus obtain a near death sentence. The pressure must be huge. It is like your child going in for life or death surgery, but the wait may be up to 21 days. Most likely after a week the symptoms will manifest. I wonder if that kind of pressure will cause one to 'snap'.....leave the house, wander the mall, go to a restaurant, go to church. Will you be so angry that you want to take as many others with you as possible? Is this what the government spent 7million dollars on in an exercise to deal with the so-called zombie apocalypse? Or will you maintain focus, put your faith in the science of the CDC, the benevolence of neighbors bringing you food and comfort. I think perhaps, people are more fragile than might be hoped for. This is not like an elderly person with metastatic colon cancer, being treated with it explained to him that his 1 year survival rate is _____, his 3 year survival rate is _____, and his 5 year survival rate is ______.Watching and waiting for your children to manifest symptoms which result in a 70-90% fatality rate is a heavy load.

I do not mean to sound like a bleeding heart liberal. I am the most conservative person I know. But I also have 3 children, 2 of which are attending SMU, about 2-3 miles from Ebola ground zero, and I am a little nervous about them being here. I can only imagine what the mother of those kids in the house where Duncan propagated and dispersed viral particles by the billions must be feeling.

I have listened to the spokesman of the CDC and finds his comments not credible. I think they are lying to us to prevent panic. I think they are sacrificing the people in the apartment at the IVY apartments. I think we do no know much about dispersion of the viral particle and the extent to which air-born particles can be taken in cause fulminent, hemorrhagic fever and death. I don't know what to think of obama except that his elective executive orders to remove any quarantine orders from countries that are in full pandemic manifestation of the disease seems counterintuitive and I can only conclude that this is part of his plan to fundamentally transform this country into a country not unlike Kenya. I think you do not need a law degree from Harvard to rationally conclude that our southern borders need to be sealed to protect the people of the United States of America, yet he concludes and orders the border open. It is now, not only counter-intuitive, but extremely dangerous. Common sense tells everyone in this country that what he is doing is putting American lived in danger. Yet, we with our normalcy bias think, "They will take care of it". "They will remove the danger". Now I don't think so. I think they are, with malice of forethought, are doing this thing. Someway they are allowing this thing to happen and they alleged remedies fall short in the minds of the public. The Administration does not seem to even make sense. Their lies, laid bare for all to see, are simply pushed aside and we do not demand any accountability. If this awful thing gets out of hand, we should exact an accountability as a public which has been pushed too far.

She tells the paramedics to wear gloves. Then takes the blanket with her to the emergency room.

I gotta’ give it to her. She seemed to be trying but her lack of knowledge is scary. Oh, by the way, she’s a nurse’s assistant. If nurses start getting sick nurses will stop going to work and there will be no one to care for the infected.

Based on the latest story I read, he was living with his “wife” and their teenaged son. I don’t know if the two adult nephews were living there. The wife also watched her 3 grandchildren for part of the day in between shifts as a caregiver. It just gets better and better, doesn’t it? How many patients did she infect if she had any particles on her clothing, etc.

I was checking out Wilford Smallwood since he lives here in Phoenix. I ended up on his FB page and found out he’s a Baha’i who LOVES Hilary. I then went on one of friend’s pages who is in Liberia, and there were some interesting things to see. For instance, Belgium was putting a lot of pressure on the Liberian govt to lift the flight restrictions, which they apparently did about 5-6 weeks ago. I wonder why Belgium would be so upset about the loss of travel from Liberia, especially with Ebola on the loose. Just things that make you go hmmmm.
