I agree with you.

In this, the “early stages” of this scourge, imho, we have quite a way to go before it reaches a point of a diminishing rate of growth.

It has been weaponized and re-introduced.

I’ve got it now. BOzo let in the enterovirus first to get a foothold so that if Ebola got here there would be a kind of boxing match between the two viruses. Makes sense.
We are all safe now.

See this thread for a bunch of cool graphs on the exponential threat of Ebola.

Political correctness is a protection for Ebola and other diseases not yet introduced into American society by our leaders

Maybe, but with the new WHO thinking, it wouldn’t hurt to keep them for another 21 days.

It lives in some animals in the wild. It is thought to be in some bats and primates. The first case was probably someone exposed to it through bushmeat or bat droppings.

I have seen some reports that it can be carried by dogs, but they remain asymptomatic. If that is true, and they get into the US canine population, is Obola going to order the destruction of all dogs as a desperate measure (and remembering that muslims hate dogs anyway)?

It’s not even being staffed.

The most corrupt are rising to the top.

After they receive everything for nothing, they want more to continue their lust for more power and something new to tickle their ears.

They’ve been away from real work for so long, they really don’t think it’s required for their world to exist.

This Ebola variant seems to have an outlier incubation period that has WHO et al fooled.

Another article mentioned that the virus has never had such a big pool to be able to mutate from - could be a real game changer.

Bring Out Your Dead

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...
