Can’t get treatment in your home country? Book a flight to the United States.

“This is going to become a trend. They’ve seen people being cured here so now they’re hoping on flights to get here instead of living out the death sentence in Africa.”

Bingo! We have a winner here.

As I noted on an earlier thread regarding the patient in Dallas with Ebola, who had also traveled from Liberia, we’re likely to see many more health care tourists from that nation and others in west Africa. They’re being turned away from hospitals over there, and while most of the poor souls don’t have the wherewithal to spring for air fare to the USA, any who do will be draining their bank accounts, doing whatever they can to mask symptoms if they’re already appearing, and hopping on a plane with their load of pathogens. Once here, they’ll receive world-class care, courtesy of the US taxpayer.

It’s heartless, I know, but we need to slam the door on this immediately. It’s bad enough if they infect no one here, but we’ve already seen that even health care workers in west Africa, who presumably were following proper procedures, are being afflicted and dying. If we don’t slam the door quickly this could get out of hand in a matter of days.

Louis Farrakhan claims Ebola invented by feds to kill blacks
American Thinker ^ | 10/03/2014 | Thomas Lifson

Posted by SeekAndFind

Well, that didn’t take long. Adding Ebola to his list of evil white plots against blacks, including AIDS, Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan has claimed it was an invention to kill blacks.
Warner Todd Huston writes at Breitbart:

In a new missive, Farrakhan wrote that Henry Kissinger created a plan in 1974 to kill black people and now Ebola and AIDS are weapons being used to fulfill that policy.

Farrakhan told followers that Kissinger said in 1974: “Depopulation should be the highest priority of foreign policy towards the Third World.”

Farrakhan went on to claim that “bio-weapons such as Ebola and AIDS” are “targeting weapons” that have been loosed by the “forces of Satan” to kill blacks both in the USA and abroad.

The basis for this claim turns out to be laughably contorted.

…the 1974 study that Farrakhan cites was titled “Implications of Worldwide Population Growth for the United States Security and Overseas Interest.” However, this study was not “written” by Henry Kissinger. He was merely the man overseeing the effort to study world population growth that Nixon assigned to the Secretaries of Defense and Agriculture, the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, the Deputy Secretary of State, and the Administrator of the Agency for International Development.

The study was controversial because it suggested that the US should adopt a policy of urging abortion and family planning on Third World nations to help keep in check unstable revolutions abroad. It was a policy briefly implemented by President Ford in his foreign policy but was ended in 1980 when Ronald Reagan became President. Reagan halted the policy, working with the Catholic Church to end US support of abortion abroad.

“And who picks up the tab for this world-class health care?”

I’m not sure Howard fits that description. At one point in the recent past, they were famous for having the most doctors with malpractice cases against them of any hospital in the US.

“Send him to press flesh with Brak and Mooch Ubama.”

Yep, just walk up to the White House fence and jump over. Then stroll up to and into the Outhouse. No problem!

We have the immaculate infection. The Nigerian president himself declared the country free of the disease.

As such, how can this be?

I can save the government a ton of money investigating ‘how they did it in Nigeria’.

Easy - don’t report it, and it never happened, or happens.

When it does happen, you kill the infected and burn the bodies.

I’ve been to Nigeria. That’s how’d they roll. Islamic state.

Do you mean President EObolo, our Sunni Imam?

Hopefully, this is another false alarm. I would be a bit more worried if this person was from Sierra Leone or Liberia, instead of Nigeria which apparently has stopped their outbreak.
