“.....Dr. C.J. Peters, who battled a 1989 outbreak of the virus among research monkeys housed in Virginia and who later led the CDC’s most far-reaching study of Ebola’s transmissibility in humans, said he would not rule out the possibility that it spreads through the air in tight quarters.

“We just don’t have the data to exclude it,” said Peters, who continues to research viral diseases at the University of Texas in Galveston........”

“I think we have to recognize that as a nation,”

Well, thank you Sylvia, that has a tinge of irony, because we have had to recognize a lot of horse$hit as a nation, for over six years. The Ebola virus in America is sadly not surprising and just more proof of your idiotic liberal open border policies. Will tell you and the rest of your administration something, if our children or grandchildren contract Ebola, you better run.

So, Burwell, why don’t you recommend to your boss that he order a ban on travel to the US of ANYONE from West Africa who isn’t willing to spend 3 weeks in quarantine, and ban all flights from West Africa itself. If he refuses, then resign and hold a presser about it.

Either stand on the principle of trying to protect and serve the American public, or confirm that you are the useless sack of shiite that you appear to be right now.

Guess they got the memo from FR.

Now Obama can read it in the morning paper.

I'm sure we're in for another Obama "You're not going to get Ebola" speech.........and if you do, don't worry...we're picking up your health tab and funeral expenses.

They can’t stop the flights from Africa because the healthcare workers will not be able to get back and forth?

What? You can’t figure that out? How many of these people are we talking about? That is so stupid it can’t be the REAL reason.

CDC, WHO, Obola and DC pols are likely very well aware of 14 year old ebola research below, which was just reiterated by German docs currently treating Ebola patients.
IMHO - please consider preventatively bolstering your immunological system with Melatonin (per NIH 09/27/2014 pub), Vit D3, Garlic and Tumeric.
Prudently sanitize hands, and pray.

People Carrying Ebola, in Some Cases, May Be Free of Symptoms ...

Best to avoid tight quarters.

Good info.

We take D3, and organic turmeric everyday. We also make and take an Elderberry tincture during flu season. We just broke open a new batch and take it 3 times daily. Its a good anti viral.

Perhaps I may be wrong, but if new Ebola cases keep cropping up til election. People may swing to the Republican side. Again perhaps a wishful thinking.

HHS secretary: There may be other cases of Ebola in the U.S.
RELATED: CDC: No way to eliminate Ebola risk in U.S.
"They want it here "
New Jersey Customs Agent: We’re Not Prepared for Ebola

What is lacking here is COMMON SENSE
When someone is identified as an Ebola patient , they ISOLATE /QUARANTINE them to protect the rest of the community,
not let them wander around(Open Borders ).

The administration is going to send 4,000 troops into Ebola country, (not the 3,000 they originally proposed).
What is going to be their first duty in humanitarian aid ?
They will bury the dead , which puts them in harms way !!
They will have direct contact with diseased bodies,and according to the CDC this risks MAXIMUM EXPOSURE
When someone catches the Ebola disease, what are they going to do ? Return the Ebola patient to the U.S.A. ?
GREAT !!
There are a total of 19 isolation pandemic beds in the USA.
What are they going to do if the number of Ebola patients exceed the number of beds ? Keep them in the corridors ?
That is what happened in countries that got overwhelmed by the numbers of patients in West Africa !!
African diseases and Central American diseases comming to a neighborhood near you, thanks to a lack of "COMMON SENSE", and OPEN BORDERS !
This is intentional dereliction of duty to protect the USA !!

You are being statistically protected.

If you catch it and die you are just another statistic.

There is no intention to protect ALL Americans.

the CDC director and Obama have decided that the ability to travel here from Sierra leone and Liberia is far more important than Americans lives. And the cowardly republicans are too chickensh*t to say anything about this insanity.

This country is on the express train to hell and it’s halfway there.
