Maloney spewed baloney about NYC tremendous response yesterday.

Yes, it was tremendous if you are a big fan of closing the barn doors after the horse has left.

Of course, all this is due to a lack of funding—puke.

When I see the Bellevue nurse demonstrating a lack of shoe cover, neck cover and head cover—color me not impressed.

When I see NYC cops throwing away protective gear in an open corner trash can—color me not impressed.

We need a travel ban now, with a full quarantine time period before someone from these countries is allowed into our country.

The people on the panel are stuck on 21 day monitoring with twice a day temp checks, including the Marine Corps major general. He says the returning troops will be monitored after they return. Good—by then they could be infecting an entire military base.

Political correct nonsense is going to get a lot of people killed.

Dallas nurse Pham is now ebola free, according to Mr. Tierney at this hearing.

Good news. Her doggie was also determined to be ebola free recently. Still no news on her boyfriend’s condition/situation.

Looks like he may have had an operation to remove something like a benign growth from his nose with a possible skin graph to repair the surgery. I had this type of operation and they applied a similar type of bandage that covered a sponge soaked in meds. to help the skin graph to be successful.

Mr Lynch (D) references when people come from Africa....
we are going to set up hospitals and equipment and wait for them to arrive.

Instead of restriction here in the US - they should have 21 day restriction before they fly to the US.

We are not taking this seriously....we want to help Africa, but we have to have a scientific based approach. It doesn’t help to tell us we are prepared & I have a feeling you will be back to ask for more resources.

More government waste. Nothing will come of it just like the hearing a few days ago. I thought we were paying for an Ebola czar. Once again, he’s MIA.

Lynch redirects same question to Torbay and he is focused on Africa, not the results of possibly infected persons to come to US.

Mentions the fact that people will take flight segments, such as Africa to Brussels, then US.

Jordan nails Lurie on her responsibility.

Asks about meetings with CDC. $39 million of funding that could have gone to vaccine development.

Calls into question other reports of spending that do not support designated toward pandemic preparedness.

‘Origami’ condoms, Michelle Obama gardening games and poop-throwing chimps: NIH spent millions on wacky projects but now complains cuts killed off Ebola vaccine research

The NIH budget included $2.4 million for a new condom design whose inventor is now being investigated for fraud

Another $939,000 taught scientists that male fruit flies prefer younger females

$257,000 went to create a companion website for first lady Michelle Obama’s White House garden

It cost $592,000 to determine that chimpanzees with the best poop-flinging skills are also the best communicators, and another $117,000 to learn that most chimps are right-handed

NIH director Dr. Francis Collins complained Sunday that a lack of funding is behind his agency’s failure to produce an Ebola vaccine in time to combat this year’s epidemic

His crack pipe blew up in his face and he has the nerve to show up on TV!

My husband had an employee come into work with his nose bandaged like that and he fired in on the spot. He told him to go home and not come back and the guy never offered a word of denial.
