If true, this couldn’t happen to a more deserving bunch. Screw ISIS.

Women and children aren’t smoking on the Hookah.

Disperse thousands of hookahs pre-loaded with the virus in Mosul, jihadis bogarting could infect their leadership very quickly.

So this is how it will escape, despite all the complicated precautions, money, and courage. Is this the one that will wipe out a third of mankind?

Nope, not as it is now.

Because the level of cleanliness and hygiene in the west is enough to keep it from spreading.

I wonder if some Boca Harram terrorists decided they would like the ISIS action better than at home in Africa.

IMHO, the great plague will largely be a common disease that has adapted so that the drugs and vaccines are rendered useless, think about it. If we had a disease that was antibiotic, or now immune to the vaccines, it could easily get someone treated, only to find out that the treatment doesn’t work because the disease that we thought we had the treatment/cure for has mutated, then when it becomes evident that the treatments or vaccine doesn’t work, the disease will have progressed along, possibly beyond the point of survivability, or at least far enough along that it will cause serious damage.

The possibility of Human Ebola bombs is truly frightening.

Human Ebola bombs took longer than expected. Smells like someone did indeed put those stolen infected bed sheets to use.

It could certainly be something other than Ebola. On the other hand with an incubation period of one to 3 weeks, how long would it take for some fanatic from Boca Harram or in any one of the seriously affected countries to travel to Syria and Iraq to take part in the murderous “fun.” There are at least 5 or 6 haemorrhagic type fevers, could be any one of them if there is truth to the story.

Remember the guys on motorcycles in AFrica who stole a cooler with E bola samples inside? Well, now maybe we know where they ended up??
