Obamacare for Ebola?

On August 1, 2014, President Barack Obama held a combination press conference and filibuster. Among other things, he stated: "Keep in mind that Ebola is not something that is easily transmitted. That’s why, generally, outbreaks dissipate."

Contrary to Obama’s statement, Ebola is easily transmitted. Moreover, past outbreaks have dissipated because the infected people died so quickly that the opportunity to infect other people was reduced.

Is you questioning Obama?? He done said ebola isn't easily transmittable; if you dis him you be RACIST!!!!

[Smokin' Joe]

He done said ebola isn't easily transmittable

Good. Maybe he'll go to the victims and shake their hands or something...

[ilovesarah2012]

Well, Obama, I feel better now.

What an idiot.

[Smokin' Joe]

Ping...

[Eric in the Ozarks]

So, in addition to his other “knowledge” Barry knows medicine...

[Vaduz]

His shoe size must be higher than his IQ.

[Nepeta]

But Obama said it isn't easily transmitted! Doesn't he know everything? /sarc

Since Obama believes this now, it means that even with a raging epidemic in the US, he'll persist in saying the same thing since he cannot change his mind~~he knows he knows everything...

[MamaTexan]

Keep in mind that Ebola is not something that is easily transmitted

I'm sure Obama is a competent in the field of medicine as he is in the realm of Constitutional law, so what could possibly go wrong?

[Sacajaweau]

Contact is sufficient. Is this one of those “burn the bedding and clothes” diseases?

[DocRock]

If it is not easily transmitted, then why issue an executive order about quarantining yesterday? (Any reporter ask this question?)

[ballplayer]

I would like to know how turn 2 doctors who contracted the disease and are now being transported back to the US,actually got it,turn had hazmat suits

[Arrowhead1952]

Did he read that in the new York slimes or hear about it on cnn?

Isn't it greatly comforting to know that the Kenyan twit is not only telling foreigners to storm the borders but actually flying them all over the country as well while this modern day version of the plague is starting to spread? Well I shouldn't call it the "plague". Bubonic plague is curable. Ebola is not which I'm sure sends the Kenyan into hysterics.

"And and...then I told them to bring the Ebola patient to Atlanta then "accidentally" have him kiss people in the street! Bwa ha ha ha ha!"

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

Just what I was going to say. These doctors got it while covered head to toe in protection.

Canadian scientists have shown that the deadliest form of the ebola virus could be transmitted by air between species. In experiments, they demonstrated that the virus was transmitted from pigs to monkeys without any direct contact between them.

When Obama lies about something this important, it's like he's trying to throw the game...

[polymuser]

“It isn’t easily transmitted. Period.”

[fivecatsandadog]

Obama is a LIAR: "Canadian scientists have shown that the deadliest form of the ebola virus could be transmitted by air between species. In experiments, they demonstrated that the virus was transmitted from pigs to monkeys without any direct contact between them. The researchers say they believe that limited airborne transmission might be contributing to the spread of the disease in some parts of Africa."

What politically-correct rot. I’m old enough to remember the AIDs crisis when politically-correct doctors told us that heteros were as much at risk as homos. Seems to me that a fatal illness that can be spread by saliva is pretty damned easy to pass on. The medical establishment will say almost anything to advance corrupt regimes.
