A Liberian woman who was hospitalized Friday in Milwaukie over fears she has Ebola does not have the disease, health care officials said on Sunday.

Thank, God.

[jjotto]

Of course not - at least until AFTER the election.

In a related story, mary burke immediately blamed scott walker for the infection, the mistaken diagnosis, and the ensuing confusion.

It's going to be a long, lethal flu season.

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

Bring out your dead! The Dark Man cometh! Bring out your dead! The Dark Man cometh! Bring out your......

(Since all records of obama's past were lost in a tragic boating accident and fire, no one can be certain that the guy in the red circle isn't him...)

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...

OK, now that it turns out she doesn’t have Ebola, will she sue for being quarantined in the hospital over unfounded or racist fears that she had Ebola????

[Cold Heart]

She’s still in a secure room, still has fever, she could have another contagion that needs quarantine.

I’d be shocked if there are half as many legit cases in Africa as they say. Just like the hyper-exaggerated African “AIDS” numbers not too long ago.

“The CDC has advised us that no further testing is required.”

Feel better now?

Can not the disease exhibit at any time during the 21 days? What is the protocol for testing?

[Gritty]

I see the Ebola Czar is on the job. This is about the only news to come through the US media in the past 24 hours - and it is good news.

It's only a matter of time before the over 150 per day coming in on visas from West Africa test positive, like Duncan. The feds are playing Russian roulette with our very lives. Then, there are the medical workers who are coming through daily as well.

Everybody involved in West Africa should be put on a 42 day quarantine and held outside the country before they are even allowed into this country.

Once Ebola gets a foothold here, we are royally scr*wed.

“I see the Ebola Czar is on the job.”

Nina Pham’s boyfriend was admitted with ebola like symptoms mid-October. Media blackout. No info on who he is or his condition. Bentley the dog’s reunion is big news though.

“Can not the disease exhibit at any time during the 21 days? What is the protocol for testing?”

WHO says 42+ days. 21 just gets the vast majority of the cases (95% or so).

So, do you feel lucky?

[bgill]

But she’s still in the hospital with some sort of disease she brought over.

[bgill]

The silver lining with Duncan is perhaps some who thought about pulling the same stunt may be having second thoughts after hearing his gamble failed.

[RummyChick]

Someone at Duke now being tested.

They are all going to be fine until after the election.

[wrench]

There was one ib Ohio today, several in CO, one in Ky., and another in Oregon. I quit counting as they are sprouting like lies from 0bama;s mouth.

What gets me is how they can be “cleared” so quickly, when several of the known cases have tested negative initially, then tested positive days later.

Wed is just a few days from now, maybe the truth will start to leak out

This country proves itself to be lucky most of the time so far.
