Nurse quarantined at Newark airport after treating Ebola patients
Daily Mail ^ | 25 October 2014 | Associated Press

Posted on 10/25/2014 1:22:34 AM PDT by CorporateStepsister

A woman who had been quarantined at Newark Airport due to stricter screening protocols on Friday after reporting contact with Ebola victims was seen exiting an ambulance in a hazmat suit later that evening as she made her way into an isolation unit at University Hospital in Newark, New Jersey.

New Jersey Governor Chris Christie said the woman arrived at the airport on a flight on Friday from West Africa. He earlier announced that additional screening protocols were being implemented at JFK and Newark International Airports.

The woman, who initially showed no symptoms of the deadly virus, just hours later developed a fever according to the New York Times and is now being tested for the virus.

Soetoro’s goal is clearly to get an Ebola patient in as many hospitals as possible. Hospitals are the best place to make sure the patient infects at least a couple of other people.

I’m sure the Republicans are just waiting till after the election. THEN they will have the courage to come out and say that the White House is occupied by an illegal alien Marxist Muslim terrorist agent of the Saudis.

If there is no ban put into place....then you might as well direct all international flights to land at some air strip in Nevada and push everyone through a seven-day inprocessing line.

Wait to ban travel until Tuesday. I have to fly back from Warsaw on Monday...No Ebola here.

Newark is my most hated of airports. I can see why they still allow west African air traffic there. It already looks like a third world country.

Obama told me this disease is very difficult to catch, won’t spread, and we’re ready for it.

Now that I think about it, if it won’t spread, why are we getting ready for it?

I'm sure the 'pubs are just waiting til after the elections...

They keep whining for money, but don't campaign about any of the issues that could easily rally people. If they aren't using real issues to campaign, do you really think they intend to change anything?

Worse than JFK or Dulles? I’m embarrassed when I think of either one being a foreigner’s first impression of America. Not that run down and poorly run is a misimpression these days. Of course God knows whether the Brits feel the same about Heathrow or the French about De Gaulle. They should.

Of course not. I think the establishment pubs believe that everything is just going to go on the same way forever. Namely, establishment Democrats and establishment Repubs scratching each others’ backs, exchanging offices now and then. It’s 1962 forever and ever and ever.

That’s the ones who sincerely, seriously do not know that the “president” is an illegal alien Marxist Muslim agent of the Saudis.

Of course, there are those who do know, and they will be angling for jobs in the coming dictatorship.

Will it take someone with Ebola crossing our southern border and then traveling to New York City to get the government to do something to seal up our border?

Of course, her tylenol wore off.

Indeed: worst major airports I’ve been to - LAX, JFK, Heathrow, Moscow Sheremetyevo and Jeddah (Saudi Arabia). Jomo Kenyatta (Nairobi), Manila, Ouagadougou and Dakar all awful too - but they perhaps have the excuse in these places of being too poor to be able to afford any better. Hargeisa in Somalia was the absolute worst of all - but that’s sort of expected, I guess, if you choose to fly through a place like that.

World’s best airports: Hong Kong, Dubai, Vladivostok, the new Doha airport, and (by far and without any doubt) Changi, Singapore.

The nurse is being held against her will?!

These Doctors (and nurses) without Borders are selfish liberals. We need to increase the incubation period to 30 or more days.

Liberals fear it will have a chilling effect on health personnel volunteering to work with ebola patients for a few weeks. Sure - have them come back to their hospital and give it to patients here.

If Obama wants to let them in then he can take the blame. Anyone she infects is blood on his hands

Bring Out Your Dead

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...
