The nation's top health official said today he regrets not sending a larger team of experts to Texas when the first case of Ebola was diagnosed, a move he said may have prevented a Dallas nurse from getting infected.
President Obama said today that his administration is “surging resources into Dallas” to examine how nurse Nina Pham contracted Ebola while helping to care for Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan, and ensure “all lessons learned” will be applied across the country.

you mean the pr8ck isn’t blaming her anymore?
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
The Precautionary Principle never seems to swing our way, does it. Guess “we” deserve whatever’s coming.
Occam’s Razor.
The queeranus commands him to kill us in any way possible!
Not allowing people with Ebola into the United States could have prevented it too. But that’s all water under the bridge now. Like Rock and Roll, Ebola is here to stay.
Not sure if you made that up, it is the first time I have heard it, and I quite like it.
“Ebolaphobic”.
She isn’t dead.
Her boyfriend’s got ebola too...
I went to my doctor today. The first thing the nurse said to me when she came in the room was ask if I had been out of the country and if I had been around anyone exposed to Ebola.
Just last week I went to my neurologist and they didn’t ask any questions like that. Different towns but same medical system. With a nurse being exposed and getting Ebola, I guess they decided to start asking these questions.
Let’s not forget the 6 children that have died from EV-68 brought in by the illegals.
Credit goes to Rush.

I know, but she’s about as good as dead.
