Liberia: Patrick Sawyer's Last Hours At Spriggs
AllAfrica.com ^ | 7 AUG 14 | Edwin G Genoway

Posted on 08/07/2014 10:55:58 AM PDT by DCBryan1

Images from a Close Circuit Television (CCTV) monitored here at the James Spriggs Payne's Airport have shown how the late Patrick Sawyer was terribly ill before boarding the Nigeria bond flight. The late Patrick from the recording, it appears he knew, he had been infected by the deadly tropical disease.

His behavior, among other passengers waiting at the boarding gate was strange. His face bore a sad countenance like someone who was troubled, as he sat alone avoiding body contacts with everyone who came close by him.

Liberians speak good, even beautiful English. Maybe the problem in America is not genetic?

Yes, he was very irresponsible to continue traveling after showing all these symptoms. One can only guess this was his way of acknowledging that he had the deadly virus. What are the five stages of grief? Oh yes, Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and finally, Acceptance. All the more difficult for someone just 40 years old with small children.

Almost all of the members of the church plant I am helping out are from Liberia. The Liberians with university education do speak good English. As for the rest? Very pidgin English and difficult to understand.

How many cases of Ebola have been contributed to Patrick Sawyer as of this moment? He is an index case and I would be curious since he was highly infectious at the time he was on the aircraft and in the airports.

One death (the contact nurse) died as a direct result from him.

He threw up at the airport hotel in Monrovia amongst friends. He then got on a plane which stopped at Togo, where he got off and got onto Asky into Lagos. It is reported that he got up to use the latrine (probably diahrea) on the first leg.

He definately threw up a few times on the Togo-Lagos leg, in which he gave the barf bag to the flight attendant. The man sitting next to him was from China. The man two men in front of him were reportedly from the Middle East (someone died in Jeddah yesterday).

Upon descent into Lagos, he "exploded" as Richard Preston mentions in the first chapter of "Hot Zone"....and was nearly incapacitaed on the plane. The flight attendants helped him out of the plane and then proceeded to clean up the excess vomit.

He then made it a few hundred feet when he collapsed into a pool of vomit, urine, diarhea, and blood.

Anyone whom came in contact with the bodily fluids without PPEs is in DIRE need of isolation and treatment. Currently, there are 59 people that had direct contact with Sawyer. 1 dead, 5 under observation. No one has said that if they Jeddah, Saudi Arabia death, or the Morrocan death today is attributed to him.

Also, there are reports (some came back negative) of people under observation in France, England, China, and the United States.

He also peed on the nurses after he was told he had Ebola. They ran away terrified.

One of those nursed died. Five (5) more are in quarantine with “severe” symptoms. He came in DIRECT contact with 50+ people while symptomatic.

He had absolutely no respect for any other person’s life, but only cared for himself. I consider him a murderer. The only reason why the MSM does not give us the truth about his behavior is because he is black.

I thought the doctor who attended him also died. Maybe I’m mixed up.

That’s really a worst case scenario you’ve related. With an incubation period of up to 21 days before symptoms show and the disease can be transmitted, I’m amazed Ebola hasn’t spread faster than it has. I guess the early cases were either among the poor or hospital workers, neither of which would be likely to travel.

I though a nurse and a doctor who treated him had died.

“”Liberians speak good, even beautiful English””

So do Nigerians. It’s a pleasure to hear them speak.

Of course, poor English skills are not genetic. Silly comment.
