Is Ebola about to go wild?
Legal Insurrection ^ | October 12, 2014 | Professor William A. Jacobson

The protocol “works” in Dallas, but health worker “breaches protocol” and contracts disease.

No, of course not, because we have it under control.

Oh, wait, ‘Heroic’ Health Worker Becomes Second U.S. Ebola Case:

"A Texas health care worker who cared for Liberian Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan at a Dallas hospital has tested positive for the disease, hospital officials said Sunday. The worker became infected despite wearing full protective gear while treating Duncan, who later died from the disease, during his second visit to the hospital.

If the preliminary diagnosis is confirmed by the Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, it would be the first known case of the disease being contracted or transmitted in the U.S."

“That health care worker is a heroic person who provided care to Mr. Duncan,” Dallas Judge Clay Jenkin said at a news conference Sunday morning....

I imagine the Gaia worshipping left wouldn’t mind all the high fatalities among the elderly and other high risk groups.

The left is evil.

“”WTF does this judge dude have to do with any of this, a public health issue?””

Texas Counties are run, more or less, by a Commissioners Court. The at large member is the “County Judge.”

the best can’t follow protocol 100% of the time.

they know this.

the average won’t follow it a lot more.

i don’t trust them. nobody should.

get ready for endgame. that’s what o-hole wants. maybe that is why he’s crammed so much damn golf in lately.

Obamacare’s Death Panels will handle that job.
Although the surprise upside is a big boost for SocSec and Medicare financials.

Yes, I don’t think the government is telling us the truth.

I don’t think Ebola is going to go wild. It needs extreme poverty, stupidity, ignorance, superstition and lack of basic health-care infrastructure to go wild.

I think this is whistling in the dark. First of all, we've got plenty of stupidity and ignorance, and second of all, we have a highly mobile and interactive population. The early outbreaks were in backwoods areas that were already isolated, so everybody just had to sit tight. Can we tell a whole city, state, and then the whole country to just sit tight? This is the SHTF scenario right there.

I was wondering how OBolaCare would cover you if you get ebola? Level IV quarantine and experimental antiviral meds cant be cheap.

It already is wild. It’s not contained and it’s spreading in Africa out of control. It’s a wildfire and there is nothing that is stopping its spread.

In Texas, the head of a County Commissioner’s Court is referred to as a judge. So, Jenkins is chief exec of the Dallas Co. Govt.

Well, let’s just all panic. That will definitely stop the spread of Ebola.

Obama utterly failed in his most basic responsibility, to keep America safe. He is the Chief Executive in charge. Ebola was a known threat. His policies allowed it to come to the US. Obama cannot hid behind congress, or behind some bureaucrat. Obama owns this miserable failure. May his soul burn in hell.
