The Ebola “Monster” is Peaking; the Real Ones Are Not

Endemic diseases that don't make headlines, like tuberculosis, malaria, and infectious childhood diarrhea, each kill more people every two days than have died of Ebola in 28 years.

The Ebola Monster is Peaking; the Real Ones Are Not In a sense, everything you need to know about the veracity of those nightmarish Ebola epidemic projections was summarized in the October 14 press conference held by the World Health Organization’s (WHO) Ebola head, Bruce Aylward. He said:

currently there were about a thousand new cases a week; • it’s “too early to say” whether “the epidemic [is] slowing down” [emphasis added] or there’s “exponential growth,” and;

• ”we anticipate that the number of cases occurring per week by [December] is going to be somewhere between five and 10 thousand.”

Whoa, Nelly! Even as he says it’s possible the growth in new cases is declining, he predicts a five to 10-fold explosion within weeks.

This Ebola scare is teaching people to not trust the federal government to have their interests in mind, so regardless whether the threat is overblown its overall effect has been very good.

It’s not the number of people killed. It’s more about the fact that government are shown to be anything but trustworthy about the nature of the disease, and also shows that they won’t do the most basic steps to keep a disease under control, and the fact that we have to deal with scares that wouldn’t be neccessary in the first place with travel quarantine in effect. In short the government is a bunch of lying slackers.

...tuberculosis, malaria, and infectious childhood diarrhea, each kill more people every two days ...

Yet no liberal, government agency, LaRaza, DNC, UNIONs, or any other liberal tainted entity will admit there is a connection between these diseases and ILLEGALS.

Don't even tell me a friggin mosquito from South America brought Enterovirus D68 here when tens of thousands of young adults and children from there were admitted, UNSCREENED, UNTREATED, and DISPERSED throughout our 50 states with no prior consultation with responsible state authorities. This all was just a pre-Ebola run up practice exercise to see if they could pull it off. DON'T EVEN.

[Gaffer]

LYING being the operative word.

[Morpheus2009]

Lying is the best word I can think of when you act certain when in reality you aren’t. If I did what the CDC and the POTUS was doing, I would be in serious trouble at my job.

[Gaffer]

I liken the Administration’s, the CDC’s and any other liberal government’s response of “you don’t have anything to fear - it’s too hard to catch it” the equivalent of my 6 year old grand daughter talking out her a$$ about how “she won’t get hurt riding her big sister’s 30 MPH Razor without a helmet. NONE of them have any way of knowing what this disease can do. They are too busy explaining that all we need to do is “wash our hands.” Absolute incompetent amateurs with no business being where they are.

Two hipsters infect NYC with ebola. The liberal mind is diseased. These two should be jailed two supposed doctors who know the dangers of this disease walking freely for two weeks spreading thier gift. They should be tarred and feathered in times square

[Cringing Negativism Network]

I just heard the number of Ebola cases, now increased above 10,000.

Granted it is focused primarily in West Africa, but it is growing.

Still.
