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...

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

Infectious Disease Ping - Ebola - as now considered a world-wide health threat.(c/o WHO)

No cases linked to the current outbreak have been reported in the US, but the increased screenings
come as the Bahamas announced yesterday that it is on 'high alert' for the arrival of Ebola.

Washington Dulles International Airport has hired part-time staff screen travelers
for the Ebola virus.
Los Angeles County Department of Public Health was recently in search of a nurse
to oversee 'biothreat responses,' including to Ebola.
Let us not forget that there has been a surge of immigrants coming from ebola infected countries in Africa, and many are temporarily detained in Mexico, just across the southern border.

“US airports have hired EBOLA screeners to test blood samples...”

LOL - oh my God... I can’t think of a faster way to spread Ebola than to be testing people in airports...

This is how medical personnel dress around Ebola patients...
