The Kansas City Health Department said they are monitoring and keeping a close eye on a patient who may have contracted a contagious virus. Spokesman Jeff Hershberger said it is extremely unlikely that this person has Ebola because of their travel history and lack of symptoms. It is unknown at this time what the patient is suffering from or if anyone else is sick.

Time for someone one to publish a smartphone app for tracking Ebola and call it iBola!
Does anyone else think that the so-called "Health Experts" haven't got a clue?
Personally, I think most of them couldn't find their a$$es with both hands.
Just too many scenarios to speculate "don't worry about it".
Obama is the master. Ebola serves him in his quest. It's a healthcare Clive-Piven thing. Obamacare will be all that is left.
Sure I believe them. They sent home Duncan with antibiotics and 2 days later he tests positive for Ebola. But nothing to see here.
Health officials think it’s the control of message and panic as their end goal, not Ebola containment. Liberal ideology is never on the side of facts, truth, and reality. It’s on social engineering and they are in charge no matter how deep the human cord wood stacks.
I find it odd that we didn’t hear anything about Ebola cases in the US until the TX one where there is a very likely danger it could spread.
“Suppose you have clothes in a suitcase....and they were washed etc by a lady who died from ebola a month later. Are the clothes infected??”
No.
4 weeks ago, it was “extremely unlikely” we would have ebola on US soil.
Those words are meaningless any more when uttered by government officials.
If you think people are running to the government because they trust them at this point, then you are delusional my FRiend.
Might I suggest that all the “extremely unlikely” patients be put up at the whitehut with the first family for the next 21 days?
Just one real reporter is all I ask for. Ask the CDC and/or other healthcare officials:
If it’s not contagious until symptoms appear, would you want to be anywhere near someone the second they get symptoms?
Imagine that.
Right now people are in such a state of media-driven panic that everyone who shows up in a hospital running a fever and vomiting is going to be screened for Ebola. This is going to be catastrophic on our health care facilities.
Before we started letting Ebola-infected travelers into this country, one would show up at the doctor's office with flu symptoms and be quickly treated as such. Now everyone is going to be presumed to have Ebola until tests show otherwise because no doctor or hospital wants to be the one to drop the ball on this.
HIV and EBOLA: How Political Correctness Will Get You Killed!
The ongoing and expanding Ebola situation and how it’s being handled (or, more accurately, NOT being handled) has a parallel with the HIV panic of a number of years ago.
It may ALSO be another manifestation of the schizophrenic nature of the hard leftists who unfortunately sit at the levers of power in this country and whose double-mindedness should now be clear to all but the dullest among us.
Allow me to explain.
A San Francisco (where else?) based and HIV infected leaderof the homosexual community began a serious campaign encouraging fellow HIV carriers to attempt to bypass or defeat the donor screening process and actively donate into the national blood supply. When pressed as to his justification for jeopardizing the entire nation, he declared that if HIV spread out into the straight community, it would almost certainly catalyze and accelerate the search for a vaccine.
Am I the only conspiracy buff to see the similarities between that and what’s going on today vis-a-vis Ebola?
I hadn’t thought about this angle until I heard Rush recently ranting about some author who’d written that because Liberia was founded by former slaves who returned to Africa, it was our unfortunate institution of slavery that is directly responsible for Ebola in the western nations of Africa. (Please note that I stop FAR short of the recent utterances of Calypso Louie Farrakan who claims that Ebola was created by evil white men to kill blacks!)
But I digress. That reasoning that America is responsible for Ebola if it can be called reasoning holds that it is America’s place to come to their rescue with a cure. And how better to catalyze and accelerate that process than to INFECT as many native born Americans HERE with the disease as possible?
Now here’s where the schizophrenia comes into the picture:
There is a growing group of folks who believe that the earth cannot support the current population approaching 7.3 billion. The bulk of them are in the same leftist camp as those now directing the present halfhearted effort against Ebola. Many of them are one and the SAME people directing the Ebola thing! The most radical of them embrace the words of a speaker at an early green movement/save-the-earth rally in California. Odd coincidence that, aye? He declared that Man is the ultimate DISEASE of nature. He got a standing O for that line!
From that meeting and others still being conducted, the greenies now believe that the 7.3 billion MUST be reduced to around 1 billion or less. And which members of which nations, ethnic groups or races are eliminated is irrelevant so long as THEY are excluded!
Scriptures informs us that A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways. The writer must have known a fair number of the leftists of his day.
Back to my question.
If, on one hand, the leftists are sincere in their effort to SAVE THE EARTH from overpopulation, why would they attempt to save the victims of Ebola and allow them to come here?
Could it be that allowing them to come here with the disease (and sending 3,000 potential military carriers THERE to bring it back with them) while portraying these actions to the noinfo masses as the compassionate thing to do is part of the same scheme attempted earlier by the HIV crowd?
I suggest that we prepare ourselves for the spread of the this 60% to 90% fatal disease among the population of this nation. (This may have been the reason for the Homeland Security drills about some zombie apocalypse.) This IS, after all, the same America that is hated by Obama and the One World leftists now in control here as the source of every evil committed in the rest of the world and for which evils it must be properly punished?
Do I really think these miscreants living in their sanitized and safe gated compounds — would do that?
After witnessing 6 years of this gang’s criminal behavior, I absolutely think that!
When the government uses such speech it usually means they have no clue.
You’re onto something.
One need not travel to get this virus any longer.
Mass hysteria.
