When they said,
“It may take up to 3 days after symptoms appear for the virus to reach detectable levels. Virus is generally detectable by real-time RT-PCR from 3-10 days after symptoms appear.
You know the “3 day period” is actually the “natural” version of the life course of Ebola, as we always understood it, in the past.
However, THIS VERSION of Ebola can be undetectable for up to 21 days.... Moreover, THIS VERSION, which the world has ever seen before popped up in 3 different cities in Western Africa AT THE SAME TIME................... THAT has NEVER happened before in the past. Thus, why some say this is a “weapons grade/manufactured in a lab” version.
Finally, I find it odd and interesting how the CDC clearly... is projecting a false confidence to the public that everything is normal and okay when it's not.
WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD THEY BE SO HELL BENT TO MAKE SURE THIS PANDEMIC HAS PLENTY OF TIME TO INFECT OUR CITIZENS? HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL HAVE TO DIE BEFORE THEY STOP THE FLIGHTS AND SECURE THE BORDER???
The kill ratio on it is higher too. I have read the number is anywhere between 70% to 85% of the public. Can you imagine %70 to 85% of the population of the U.S. gone??? That would be what I would expect in a nuclear attack.
Finally, the survivors will not be able to avoid the massive economic impact this would have on the not only the U.S. but the world.
We still have time to stop this, but we have to push, push, push over the next 30 days before this thing spirals out of control.
By contrast, the Spanish Flu (1918) had a mortality rate of 2.5%
“Can you imagine %70 to 85% of the population of the U.S. gone???”
I’m not defending the US government (please folks, let’s start calling these schmucks and demanding they stop flights from the affected African countries - Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea) but that number is just way off.
You’re assuming that the ENTIRE US population would get ebola. That hasn’t even happened in Liberia.
Your government does not accept the concept of "border".
I think you are mixing up stages.
They are saying 3 days AFTER SYMPTOMS appear it may be testable.
The 21 days you mention is the possible INCUBATION stage BEFORE symptoms.
No, why would anyone think about that in regards to Ebola?
