Ping!
I am sure the US government is working on it as we post amongst ourselves
Society is screwed unless they quickly cut off air traffic in and out of Africa. I’d put a 30-day no-flight deal into effect.
We heard the same scare stories about AIDS in Africa 20 years ago...
That's the part the NYT is afraid to talk about. It's not fair to confine Ebola to 3rd world African countries. We need to spread the wealth to America and Europe.
A link to this thread has been posted on the Ebola Surveillance Thread
So you are comparing AIDS to Ebola? In what ways are they the same?
There were predictions it would wipe out 50% of Africa with huge areas depopulated. Never happened.
Yes, but are they working to prevent it or to cause it to spread more quickly?
Don't forget, if more people died then the wild-eyed greenies will be pleased that there are more resources for the elite eco-nuts.
It’s already airborne. How else do you suppose that those American health-care workers were infected? They took all the proper precautions. Yet, they were still infected. There can be only one explanation.
I’m not afraid to say this.
OBAMA IS BEHIND IT!
What, you thought only Muslims in the Middle East like biological warfare? No, our very own Muzzie in chief and black nationalist is determined to infect Christian whites with diseases from illegals because he believes in the equal distribution of sickness. White people must be punished for what they did to his terrorist granddaddy.
The diseased children sent here from Marxist hellholes in Central America are the viral shock troops of Obama’s rage. The man is a MEGA RACIST!
“I am sure the US government is working on it as we post amongst ourselves”
Yup, they have top people working on it.
Top people.
(Switch to ending picture of the warehouse in Indiana Jones.....)
Never fear. Ebola patients could be treated on hospital ships without risking the entire US population, but king Hussein 0bama's regime has turned on the pipeline to bring infected "patients" into the country, so we can share the wealth of third world countries.
And take note - they say it cannot be transmitted through the air, but when they arrive , medical personnel use "double bagging" techniques - one spacesuit for the ebola patient and one for the person accompanying them.
The government wouldn't lie to you. /sarc

The physical exhaustion and emotional fatigue that come with caring for patients infected with Ebola may further increase the chance of an inadvertent exposure to bodily fluids on the outside of the personal protective equipment, leading to unwanted contact when the gear is removed,
So in you are saying that it is impossible for any disease to become a pandemic?
It has been widely reported to be airborne. The only disagreement is at what range an infected patient can transmit the disease.
Elevator, airplane, train, all in range. Shopping mall, grocery store or classroom,....not sure yet.
Ive read the study where they had airborne transmission between pigs and monkeys. Scary stuff.
No. But how many times do you get to cry wolf before no one pays attention anymore...
