Ebola Cover-up? African Dies Vomiting on Plane to New York
Israel National News ^ | 10-17-2014 | Ari Yashar

Posted on 10/17/2014 9:15:18 PM PDT by sheikdetailfeather

Congressman Peter King (R-NY) is outraged after Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) officials dismissed Ebola after a "cursory" exam of an African man, who died on a plane to JFK Airport Thursday in a fit of vomiting.

The unnamed 63-year-old had boarded an Arik Air plane out of Lagos, Nigeria the night before, a federal law enforcement source told the New York Post. While in the air, the man vomited in his seat repeatedly, and before landing in New York he died on the plane.

The 145 frightened passengers were kept on board as CDC officials and police entered the plane at around 6 a.m. when it landed, but after a very brief examination that apparently did not include a blood test with lab results, they claimed the man had not died from the lethal virus.

How often do we hear about puking on public transportation ?


Seems to be a lot more common, these days.

Also - the temperature level...

The nurse who had been exposed to duncan was cleared by CDC to fly because, altho’ she was running a fever - it wasn’t yet at 100.5.

Excuse me?

She WAS running a freaking temp and she was an exposure risk.

You don’t just suddenly go from NO temp to 100.5...it RISES from normal up. Anyone knows this.

Are they insane.

AND we have a right to know if this man died from ebola or not?

incompetence and cover up -

WE do not have time for this - o’bummer always diddles around for weeks to months before making a decision on anything...and it has caused untold damage - and deaths (to our troops - in the past.

Ebola moves faster than that. WE don’t have time for the boy king’s diddling. Will some grownups please step up!

And save us the incessant Talking Heads!

Unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!

One wagers (and hopes) that this will be featured on Monday's Kelly File.

There have always been air sickness bags in the pockets on the seat backs. Of course, if I were on a flight from Nigeria (hypothetically) and someone started blowing lunch, I would make/force my way to the cockpit and help fly the plane.

W.H.O. has criticized the CDC for letting all these people go with just a cursory glance or a some sort of rapid test. They know that often the first test will be negative, if there is not a high enough viral load. Suspect cases should be tested in another 48-72 hours.

Also, the CDC seems to be taking the word of the patient when they claim they haven’t been around anyone with Ebola. Don’t they even read their own reports out of the Hot Zone in Africa? That is one of the biggest problems with tracking infections— they LIE!

They took the corpse's temperature and it didn't have a fever.

“The 145 frightened passengers”

The other 145 Ebola infected Africans were spread widely around New York and told that when they began to get sick, they should go to the most crowded places they could find, and cover as many other people as possible with vomit when they start feeling really bad, as that would be the easiest way to get to a hospital and get some of that great owe-bamacare.

The plane may have been under white house command.

Yep, notice too....no one noted any fever with this guy or the sweats. You’d be showing a 103-degree temperature. Bogus story....but it got people scared.

The outcome by Xmas? Watch as twenty-percent less people travel around the holidays. Massive airline profit cutting will occur, and then the President’s team will start to worry that the public hasn’t bought into their message.

In this outbreak only 18% of the infected even experience hemorrhagic symptoms at all. It is mostly vomiting and diarrhea.

This has been reported repeatedly by MSF. The sequencing indicates it is Zaire, but with numerous mutations. Bleeding, except for blood shot eyes has not been reported during the end stage of the disease.

I believe the number is significant of many infected and symptomatic who are not febrile. I think it is as high as 28% according to MSF. Some of the other Freepers have been keeping notes.

Fever is not a necessary symptom on ebola presentation.

We’re going to be jumping 10 feet in the air every time somebody pukes on public transportation.

Why not, if that puker is from Nigeria, Liberia, or Sierra Leone?

In this case, it probably is something else, but if it was Ebola, whatever people handled the body - probably without precautions - will unfortunately have a good chance of developing Ebola symptoms as well.

BTW, why is it the Israeli media who are first to break this story? Were American media told to shove it under the rug?

At the end of the two-to-three week period...you become contagious as you show fever (101 or better). No fever, no Ebola.

I would note this odd characteristic which popped up in some discussion yesterday. The survivors of Ebola (more each day) carry an immunity to Ebola. What wasn’t noted early on by the news media is that this immunity is only good for roughly a decade. So, you could catch this a second, third, and even forth time. No one much has talked this angle of the problem.
