INteresting quote that is pretty presumptious.

“The dotted line shows countries home to the Pteropodidae family of fruit bats who are the natural hosts of the disease.”

Suspected, yes. Not known.

The response of Pres. Obola will be to invite them all in with free one-way tickets to the U.S., with the promise of a free Obummer phone as a bonus.

After all, it’s just not fair that there is an ebola epidemic in Africa but not in this country.

There will come a point where these countries need to be quarantined. It would be good to have our troops out long before that happens. This will get ugggly fast.

Actually I’m hoping for a cold winter as soon as possible now.

My thinking is that the cold weather would hinder the spread of ebola in the north, at least during the winter.

Australian news.

Meanwhile, aistralia says they will NOT be sending anyone to the hot zones.

The Australian government will not send doctors or nurses to west Africa to help contain the Ebola crisis until it is certain “all of the risks are being properly managed”, the prime minister, Tony Abbott, has said.

I believe it’s the opposite. Heat kills it.

On Varney’s show this morning, Stephen Moore suggested ebola may have been brought to the US deliberately so that our researchers and doctors would throw all their energy and resources into fighting it.

Another case of Obama taking care of his African brothers and sacrificing the health and safety of Americans.

I’m pretty sure the graph for air traffic looks like the inverse of that graph.

Interestingly , there no one has addressed the sanitary conditions of the most backwards places in the equatorial regions.

Where these diseases originated are where:
1) the people are the most backwards, illiterate and “closest to the earth” on the planet.
2) People are eating their “government inspected grade A” bush meat, AND the fruit bat.....
3) Sanitary conditions in these areas are non existent. People shit and piss where they drink, have their baths and wash their clothes. These are the areas where they are still first generation spear chuckers and zero civilization has not found its way there excepting to bring the poor some aid.

Aid alone will not solve their problems. Yup, just throwing money at it will not solve the root lest we say “containment”.

Worst part? You and I could go and give them all the root sanitary conditions and they would pull them a part and repurpose or sell the improvements. “if the bush is good enough for the chief....”
and the whiteman’s way..... ain’t our way still prevail.
AND its bigger than that.
The whole turd world and equatorial regions will be decimated, with the shit flowing out of the diaper into the developed world.

Hang on to your socks!

Frankly, I think Thomas Duncan was too dumb to be an actual, willing agent of Ebola warfare, but we'll be hearing even kookier stuff as the weeks go by, I suppose.

Acually, thanks to the one-worlders sprinkled throughout this administration, the air traffic graph for the US shall remain flat indefinitely.

I don’t think Duncan was a willing agent. I do believe it quite possible that standards were loose in order to let it happen. There should have been a ban on flights from these areas from the start. Our government has no interest in protecting us.

I was going by this:

SURVIVAL OUTSIDE HOST: The virus can survive in liquid or dried material for a number of days. Infectivity is found to be stable at room temperature or at 4°C for several days, and indefinitely stable at -70°C (6, 20). Infectivity can be preserved by lyophilisation.

Public Health Agency of Canada

the colder it is the longer the virus stays alive?
