Earnest: Quarantines Unduly 'Burden' Health Care Workers
Breitbart.com ^ | 27 October 2014 | Breitbart Staff

Posted on 10/28/2014 9:53:31 AM PDT by Rockitz

Monday at the White House daily press briefing, press secretary Josh Earnest said quarantines for health care workers who are returning from treating Ebola patients in West Africa, like nurse Kaci Hickox was over the weekend, would be an "unduly burden" on them.

Earnest said, "What this reflects is a commitment by this administration to review the guidelines in place to make sure that they reflect what is injury to the American people. We should not lose sight of whatever guidelines put in place should not unduly burden the health care workers who are operating in West Africa...."

The intent is more and more obviously to get Ebola into the Amerian population.

How shall we list all the gub'mint rules & regs that "unduly burden" Americans?

Should I start with the infringements on the RKBA?

This article was immediately followed by this headline: Ebola Has Killed More Than 200 Doctors, Nurses, And Other Healthcare Workers Since June.

Given the Obama agenda for America, preventing an outbreak among health care workers is an undue burden...to him and his plans for nationwide destruction and chaos.

Yep. And there are Muslim health care workers in England who have successfully fought to eliminate the inconvenient burden of hand washing.

The better to transmit communicable diseases to you, my dearie . . .

I clearly do not comprehend this administration or for that matter the attitudes of these Doctors and Nurses.

OMG! What part of Ebola has killed over 200 healthcare workers do they not understand? What part of this is so hard to understand that THEY ARE THE MOST LIKELY VECTOR to bring this disease into the country!?

Their colleagues are dying in the field from this and they think they are somehow magically immune from it, exempt for a normal standard of care...why? Just because they are counting on our healthcare system to “save” their butts if they come down with this? And, and...they think our CDC is knowledgeable enough to keep the rest of the public safe from their own stupidity?

This is the “setup.” They already know that they will implement a military solution to this undue burden.

I disagree.

So burden away. Do they want the disease spread or not? Quarantines work, they aren’t punishment.

It’s one small part of Cloward-Piven; Overwhelm the system, make the 47%ers hanging onto a gubmint teat scream and demand total gubmint takeover of EVERYTHING, as the band begins softly playing “Good Night, Irene”.

EBOLA PANIC IN THE DEFENSE DEPARTMENT...!!!

Soldiers returning home from Ebola infested African countries are quarantine 21 days in Italy before entering U.S.

430 doctors and nurses died killed by the disease while treating Ebola patients in Africa...

Some African countries put 42 days in quarantine those coming from Ebola countries.

Why are health care workers from Ebola countries not forced to be at least 21 days in quarantine when they return to U.S.A. for the protection of their own families and the country?

Getting infected with Ebola by a doc or nurse that is so dense, and so selfish, as to NOT quarantine themselves is “unduly burdensome” on the rest of us.

Assclown!

Quarantine doesn’t burden those in the hospital as much as five more ebola patients leaking toxic material from every orifice.
