My reply: “Duh”.
I’ve been stating basically the same thing, except my rant is that rather than the Gov and CDC ‘downplaying’ the incidents, they should be emphasizing general hygiene ACROSS THE ENTIRE COUNTRY.
I see people every day leave restrooms without handwashing, we read of TSA reusing gloves on repetitive travelers, we’re encouraging the rather-poor hygienic use of reusable grocery bags among a population with piss-poor hygiene habits and every time I’m in a store or mall I see at least a dozen instances of inconsiderate people coughing with no concern for those around them (the latter in my proximity only, meaning the actual rate of occurrence is much, much higher).
People are pigs. If the Gubmint can’t enforce basic protocols/practices among professionals, there’s no stopping this or any other bug.
Excellent work. Excellent analysis.

I thought all suspected ebola contaminated medical waste was incinerated on site as part of the “certification process” for those 4 special ebola treatment centers (Emory is one of them).
Just another “oops” from the “experts”.
BTW, there are wild pigs in Ga, and landfills are one of their favorite feed areas.
On top of that, we were repeatedly told there was ZERO risk to the community in bringing these ebola VIPs to this country for treatment. Just another in a string of lies.
Ideas are diminished when spelling is at the 6th grade level.
“In-act” is not a word. The proper spelling of what you were referencing is “enact”.

They should have soaked the area in bleach for several hours. Then washed it away.

Eeeee-bolllll-aaaaaa ping!
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...
Infestation in the wild pigs would be very bad. Click link below for information on this. The link on transmission from pigs indicates it can be airborne transmission over short distances. We are talking droplets from sneezing and coughing. I truly believe the CDC is lying about airborne transmission. They are not to be trusted.

Tell the engineer who wrote this. Glad to have an English teacher on board.
Ebola VIOs? Ebola VIOs have been causing Ebola outbreaks, what is one, and where did they cause a problem?
I guess that finger was lazy and kept hitting O instead of P in VIPs.
Can someone explain to me, like I was a five year old, WHY transmission to the pig population would be so horrible?
I understand HOW it transmits, and I understand that the problem is transmission from pigs to primates (humans.) I live in an area without a wild pig population, so I am not fully “getting” the issue.
Can someone explain it to me (the rest of us)?

Because Muslims would be safer than the rest of us.
Great suggestions and common sense, it reminded me that modern government information releases tend to be weak on the actual work portions, or street level, or real world, nitty gritty, etc. levels of their vague and general advice that they give today.
It’s as though rather than anticipate questions and glitches that people will run into when dealing with a specific threat, that a computer program just keeps pumping out the same general memos with minor adjustments of whether earthquake or Ebola, or flu is entered.
That is exactly the reason I was expecting from FR, but I am pretty sure it is not the reason suggested.
