Is this the precursor to Escape from New York?
Take a bite of the Big Apple.
Don’t mind the ebola.
Should be a quarantine from anyone coming from west Africa.
WHO says that the incubation time is 42 days. We put the Dallas folks (Duncan family) on a 21-day quarantine. Their kids are now back in schools.
Sure hope that 3-5% chance they are infected doesn’t hit...
Also, there’s a story out today (Alex Jones, but still...) confirming something I thought weeks ago:
To prevent “public panic” and in the interest of “public health” the feds are now “disppearing” the infected.
They show up to hospitals bleeding from body orifices, fever, etc. and the doctors and medical staff are told later they had “malaria” and were taken away.
No telling how many actual cases are out there.
What happened to the nurse’s boyfriend (Pham’s boyfriend)?
Just one example.
I wonder... do they believe their own bullsh*t?
Unlike the situation in Dallas, the one in New York City worries me because of the higher population density, and that runs the risk of a higher rate of infection even if the Ebola virus doesn’t transmit like the common cold and influenza viruses.
Let’s go ebowling.
Doctors are permitted a choice of oaths. Some take the Hippocrates oath. Some take the Mengele oath. The ebowler obviously took the latter.
Help me finish the theme song, sung to the tube New York, New York:
Start spreading Ebola...I’m dying today...
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...
