Ebola is here.

[erudne]

So, dogs can be carriers, but not get Ebola.
I suppose that means other pets and animals can also....
I saw a photo in Time magazine, of a dead victim, with her mother about 20 or so feet away, and the thought came to me, what about flies???

If a fly landed on a victim, got bodily fluids on itself, then flew over to someone, landed on them, and passed infected material onto them, then that person brushed the fly off, getting infected material on their hands then rubbed their face, eyes, etc. I wonder what the chances of the person becoming infected themselves is?

How far can flies fly, anyway, and how long does the virus live not being in a host?

In dry sperm ebola remains active for 17 days, how's that for a thought bubble?

i also dont care how people feel about the people coming home who have been infected. it would be ethically wrong to bar them from returning to the place they live

i doubt this guy made it a point to get infected. on top of that, its easy to say keep him out but you would sing a different song if it were you. i dont see any valid reason for saying he has no right to return home for quality healthcare, that of which he is now required to pay for; that likely does not cover care in a foreign nation. although he died in the hospital, his return home was still the right decision for him.

it may make some logical sense to deny him entry to the US but it that is not an argument for and ethical decision. he is an american citizen and has a right to return home. only socialists would keep him out to protect everyone else. we live in a nation where the people pride themselves in being united, its even in the name.

No Only a socialist would allow him to expose everyone. That comment was totally backwards.
We used to have safety standards on people entering the US, and the Socialists took that away by boil the frog over several decades and it is time to return to protecting the people. A 2 or so week quarantine is a small price to pay to keep that disease out of this country and saving lives, even a few or one life is worth that, To say otherwise is very selfish on part of the potential carrier. They chose to leave the country and be exposed.
No way citizens should have to reap death from their stupidity, ignorance or just plain stubborn bull. We have the right to protect our families, children, grandchildren, parents, siblings, friends and neighbors. They do not have the right to infect them and even potentially infect them until they are shown to be disease free on their return and that may take the incubation period to show. There is no other way !
In the case of the military being sent there, they need the same quarantine when returning and the politicians that sent them into harms way in an area they do not belong should be brought to account for. That act is as close to treason as they can get.

I hear they are going to screen incoming travelers . . .
The problem is that they won't be allowed screen anyone
from Africa. That would be PROFILING!?!?!?!?

Sheldon

That's the mentality they inflict on us now.
Then they do their deeds while everyone stands there drop jawed in disbelief...
Thats how the left operates.
In all things absurd........

Have you all considered that this agenda is why THEY have the extensive underground cities set up?

We aren't invited...

I'll tell ya. If i catch this crap. im going to pay them a visit and blow snot on all of them.

My wife has seen these places in her former employment. Total bunker bay entrances and gun/grenade emplacements, no doubt heavily hi tech monitored

 

[mrblond]

ya know. one thing they have never said is of Mosquitoes can transfer Ebola or not. I am going to assume not but never know.

If animals can transmit it, mosquitoes can

Wash your hands, don't pet stray dogs, don't sleep with Ebola patients. Oh, and don't lick any packages sent to you from Africa.

Wash your hands, don't pet stray dogs, don't sleep with Ebola patients. Oh, and don't lick any packages sent to you from Africa.

At this point, any information coming from the government is not trustworthy, and I believe there is much easier transmissibility than they want you to believe.
Regardless it should never have been brought here as it was.

And hope no one sneezes at you and that mosquitoes don't bite. This may indeed be the Pale Rider (Pus Rider) of the Apocalypse

Don't know how I missed this party for so long...

It's pretty clear they are underestimating how easy it is for ebola to spread. We were sent a flier today at work very similar to the link above. I call bolshoi, and halfway through I realized I needed some hazmat suits.

I hate sounding like I'm wearing a tinfoil hat, but consider the following:

• Ebola treated very lax. No preparations. In Portland, we have been told that since there are no direct flights from Africa there is no chance that ebola will make it here, so no need to take precautions or prepare. Bolshoi.
• Troops sent to Africa to "fight" ebola. Who is the first in any community to contract a disease? Hint: The world's oldest profession. What does a troop usually do the first time they are granted leave? Would I partake in those circumstances? No, but there are THOUSANDS of troops. At least one will make a fatal mistake and bring it home.
• Why the hell didn't they stomp this out when it was contained after the initial outbreaks over ten years ago?
  
• The porous southern border is already being used by the Obama Administration to spread disease courtesy of our tax dollars to every part of the country by sending the children who mass there to their nearest relative in the US without quarantine. Free transportation and free school. US citizen children have already died due to this exposure. What a school year this will be.
• You have to know this will hit the slums in Latin America as they are even more lax than us about entry. Expect to have masses of infected patients crossing the border for medical attention they can't get at home. It's what I would do in their shoes.

I hope I'm wrong, but this is going to get ugly folks. It doesn't matter whether its due to design, political correctness, or incompetence it's coming and we will have to deal with it and much more.

Welcome! Waters fine!
Note: Bolshoi means Grand, as in Bolshoi Dobre "Grand Day!" Maybe Gavno is more better, like Guano.

Authorities would love to eradicate ebola. Problem is that they don't know where it hides.
Scientifics know it's in bats, and suspect monkeys. Don't know why it flares up.
Maybe nature set a "stupid threshold" that releases it to cull the herd every once in a while.
Maybe there's a hidden lake of ebola scum held back by a scientific stupids dam that lets go.
I have many theories, have been discounted by the scientifics.
I know my enlightenment is getting through because Creep copied me!
Wash your hands, don't touch your face!
And VOTE - the bums out!

 

[3MTA3]

LOL - my use of "bolshoi" is to prevent what I really want to say from being transformed to "bubblegum"... maybe "bolshoi bubblegum" is more accurate...

We can't vote out the Illuminati and Banksters, who always get what they want. In this case it's depopulation

 

[3MTA3]

Even if voting the bums out would work, it won't happen quick enough for us to stop this.

If I survive I will sure as heck do my duty in the voting booth, er, I mean mail in ballot prior to it being shredded.

 

[Provincial]

Once Ebola is widespread here will the Federal Government pass out hazmat suits to the protesters in Ferguson and St. Louis so they can keep "protesting" ?

 

[spreck]

The scariest part of all of this, for me at least is the fact that we are coming into cold and flu season (people coughing and sneezing all over the place). I work in the a service industry and have begun wearing rubber gloves while working in peoples homes to protect myself and family. I also use antibacerial after every job. dont know if any of this will be effective against ebola, but I very rarely get sick anymore.

It is amazing that while we actually look down the barrel of what may be a Bush/Clinton Presidential "contest", people still view it as a "choice". The last go around we were given Evil Sr. and Evil Jr. to choose between(of course, we chose Evil Sr.) and the next time will be the same. Even if it was an actual choice and not set up by our handlers, for the first time in our history we elected a guy based on nothing but his skin color, just to show that we AREN'T racist. That is proof to me that even if it were a choice, decadence has taken it's toll on our countrymen.

No matter the name of the "elected" official, he will undoubtedly tell us how scary Ebola and terrorism are and that we must fight them abroad or they will fight us here, all the while leaving their access(our southern border. Not that the northern border is airtight.) wide open. We have someone posing as President telling us that "You can't get Ebola from someone next to you on a bus." while the CDC tells us "Stay away from public transportation.". We are told not to racially profile against Muslims, but if you see your American neighbor doing anything a Lefty may deem "suspicious", you are to call the FBI immediately. Soon all cell phones will come with a "Report Suspicious Behavior" button making throwing your neighbor into the gulag soooo much easier than it was before!

The way our world has taken Orwellian turns makes the prospect of "What shall tomorrow bring?" all the more interesting, doesn't it? We are obviously being set up for a major fall. Will "terrorists" finally bring in a dirty bomb or will they just bring a disease? Either way, I see a lot of people trying to board up their windows while their front door is wide open and that can't end well.
