doctor: gov’t ‘tight-lipped’ on respiratory virus, may be from illegals
BREITBART TV ^ | 9/17/14 | IanHanchett

Posted on 09/17/2014 4:55:09 PM PDT by Kartographer

Dr. Jane Orient, Executive Director of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, reported that the government has been “real tight-lipped” about the mysterious respiratory illness that has struck children in the United States, expressed concern that the illegal immigrant minors from Central America could be the source, and argued that the government should devote more resources to border security to combat the spread of disease on Wednesday’s “Laura Ingraham Show.”

From analyzing news stories, it was first dropped in California (enterovirus-68 also associated with polio-like symptoms in several countries in the past), then Denver, Kansas City and eventually spread more in the southeast. Looks like the result of a quick trip on I-70 through K.C. then to the southeast for some wandering around.

They will remain "tight-lipped" until they can find a way to blame this on "the previous administration."

I'm confident there is a team somewhere - like in the basement of the Executive Office Building - combing over the records of the Bush administration, looking for any tiny pretext for such a blame-shift.

This really scares the hell out of me. I have been sick ALL SUMMER with a respiratory ‘something’ I have never had to deal with before. I’m just now trying to get my voice back and still have a hacking, gag-inducing cough.

My eldest son is asthmatic and I’m very worried......not to mention my elderly parents I’m taking care of.

I feel your pain! Actually, your hacks and wheezes...

My very healthy, 17 year old, high school soccer playing son, brought “it” home. He went from healthy, playing in a HS game, to complaining of a bad headache, to a high fever and quick heavy congestion. He actually missed school and (along w/others on squad) too winded to practice for a few days.

Then I got it. Same on set of symptoms, but unlike the teen, I’m not shaking it. Can’t lose the cough (I do have asthma but this is making it out of control). Was at the dentist office yesterday, his whole staff, masked even when NOT doing pts...everyone there sick.

Best she sleep with one eye open chose her surgeon and staff carefully. Look what happened to Joan Rivers when she merely suggested that Moo was a transgender.

Get well SOON!

This is BIOLOGICAL WARFARE against AMERICANS.

And, I don’t give a damn if it can be proven OR NOT; Governors, congresscritters AND AIRLINES (SouthWest transported many of the illegal petri-dishes) need to be told in no uncertain terms that we knew this was going to happen and we know THEY knew, as well.

We’re holding them responsible, along with BenghaziBarryEbolaSoebarkah.

When I get deathly ill, I plan on making an appointment with my congresscritters and Governor to talk with them about it...(and hopefully share my infection).

The game of Diseased Immigrant Roulette continues...

Bring Out Your Dead

We’re gonna need

a bigger cart!

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...

Enterovirus D68 was discovered in 1962. A cluster of respiratory illnesses was published in 2011.

Something has changed.

Al Gore invented the Internet and went on to invent Global Warming. I would look there first.

"illegal immigrant minors from Central America could be the source"

If there's a connection, don't expect the LMSM to report on it till after the election.

And usually transported and deposited in secret in the various states and towns. Thee are the actions of a government at war with its own citizens.

My thoughts exactly. When does it reach the point of rebel before you die? Don't want to encourage a revolution...I really don't because of the harm and damage that will occur, but it reaches a breaking point where we are going to die from the stuff this government is doing for political gain. What to do?

Doc said I had a bad virus that would take a while to get over. Bloodwork is back today.
