CDC allowed Doctors Without Borders to bring Ebola patient onto New York City subway

Craig Spencer is a U.S. doctor who, as a participant in Doctors Without Borders, went to Guinea to treat Ebola patients.

After he got back to the U.S., he passed the so-called “enhanced screening” that the U.S. Centers for Disease Control gives to all returning travelers from West Africa.

After he passed this “enhanced screening,” he rode on the New York City subway system, went to a bowling alley, and rode in a taxi.

After that, he tested positive for Ebola.

CDC Director Tom Frieden said that people with Ebola should not ride on mass transit because they might give Ebola to someone else.

Carmen on all mass transit vehicles will take the temperature of all incoming passengers....

The problem is obvious: they’re just not making artisanal “skinny-jeans” HAZMAT suits for Hipster Doctors.

It’s all a STYLE mistake. . .

>>> Although he acted irresponsibly when he returned, this doctor was down there in the hot zone trying to help.

True, but the 18th century physician who bled his patients was trying to help, too. Intention is only 1/2 the equation. Net effect is the other 1/2.

The CDC (Center to Maximize Disease Communicability)
would have ONLY ‘protected’ America IF
the infected are smoking cigarettes.

Personally I believe having the illegals pouring in with disease and now Ebola being allowed in are both intentional and part of “heightening the public awareness” in preparation for a bio terrorist attack from ISIS with the bio weapons from Iraq.

I don’t believe the NY Times running a story on Bush lying about WMD’s not being in Iraq was just a coincidence.

I believe there is a bio attack coming and the idea is to blame Bush for not destroying the weapons which resulted in ISIS get their hands on the weapons.

We are experts. We can self monitor.”

Apparently this a**hole Spencer couldn't or didn't! I would move to prosecute him for criminal negligence. Manslaughter if anyone dies as a result of contact with him. If you're going to say you should be allowed to adhere to a different standard, then by G*d you'd better adhere to it!

I do know that there were Chemical weapons in Iraq.

The bio-attack is a hard scenario to launch. The only ones outside the US that had a heighten success was the Soviet Union ( http://www.amazon.com/Biohazard-Chilling-Largest-Biological-World—Told/dp/0385334966/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1414171657&sr=8-1&keywords=Ken+Alibek )

I’m not saying that AQ or some other Islamic spin off has developed walking virus deliverable (WVD) persons - but viruses that are deadly - like Ebola - are fast acting and a swarm of people to carry it is needed if not dispersed by a mechanical device (missile, etc).

The fact is that the Obama Administration has been too lax in stemming the tide of immigrants into the US without proper screening. More so, he has disbanded almost the entire intelligence community that was needed to analyze the daily raw data coming in...

Seems to me he is purposely wanting a virus outbreak to punish this republic and leaving us vulnerable for years to come.

I’m betting on anthrax.

Shades of the anthrax attack after 9/11 and Bush lied about WMDs.

You could contaminate every major city with just a few ounces even using a crude method like was used after 9/11 with the mail.

Back in the 1950s and 60s test were conducted by the military on how bio weapons would be spread without anyone knowing that’s what was being done.

Those test have been made public years ago.

Contaminating an entire city with anthrax is very easy.

https://www.nytimes.com/books/first/a/alibek-biohazard.html

The Soviets and later the CIA went there and retrieved samples of the weapons grade anthrax that was produced for decades inside the Soviet Union...it was still viable!

It highly possible and probable that that samples could be obtained by anyone with the average amount of cash to go there and do the same...considering the sea is almost drained and Vozrozhdeniya Island is now accessible...

If you get the book - you won’t be able to put it down!!!

Everyone forgets, before the anthrax attack that followed the 9/11 attack, the only other known use of anthrax to target someone for assassination was someone connected to the dope running operation into Mena, Arkansas.

As we all know that dope running operation into Mena still hangs over the Clintons heads and daddy Bush was completely isolated from it.

Hillary is very vindictive.

I find it hard to believe an anthrax attack following the 9/11 attack, which Hillary blamed on Bush, was just a coincidence.

If in fact there is a bio attack and anthrax is used and they try to blame Bush, you will know Hillary is behind it.
