CDC Issues Ebola Checklist: 'Now is the time to prepare'
Washington Examiner ^ | September 15, 2014 | Paul Bedard

Posted on 09/15/2014 9:38:52 AM PDT by scouter

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, warning hospitals and doctors that “now is the time to prepare,” has issued a six-page Ebola “checklist” to help healthcare workers quickly determine if patients are infected.

While the CDC does not believe that there are new cases of Ebola in the United States, the assumption in the checklist is that it is only a matter of time before the virus hits home.

Close your borders to arrivals from nations with an infected populace

Check

Oh, wait...

Nah. We can’t do that, but you in your own home, you can do many things to prevent being exposed to the diseases we allow through just for you.

of course they would have to spell it in increasingly inventive and twisted ways.

Here are a few suggestions:
Ybolah
Ebowla
Eebolla

Good one. I didn’t think about that.

Obama’s diabolical plan to insert our military into the ‘Hot Zone’ means that military families will be placed in jeopardy and when the military members become infected it will serve as a vector for introducing the virus into the U.S. Is this his self-created “mother of all chaos” plans for martial law and suspension of the 2016 election?

[ I don’t know the numbers on women, but I’d say close to 50% of men don’t even wash their hands before exiting a restroom.

It’s rather disgusting. If I shake hands with anyone, I almost immediately want to wash my hands. ]

More women than you think use the restroom without washing their hands....

There is nothing more disconcerting than sitting in the stall doing your business and hearing someone leave the stall and walking directly OUT of the restroom without making a trip to the sink first...

Makes me shudder everytime.... I am a little bit of OCD about handwashing after using the restroom, which is not a bad OCD to have.

And you can count on the Gov’t to hide the details of where cases turn up. That’s the really damnable thing about this. It’ll be in your town or city for weeks before you ever hear about it. And it could run rampant through the schools!

Prepare. You know, just like the children sang to us in the Super Bowl. City to city. We've been played and all the NFL scandals are white or black noise so we'll forget about half time.

Open borders will be largely to blame if we lose our lives.

Because they need a good reason to declare martial law, suspend elections, etc...why not Ebola?

“If even ONE case shows up in the USA, I will blame OBAMA and his ultra-liberal policy of letting anyone in the country.”

Unfortunately it’s not like the GOPe has a different policy. The GOP-establishment is firmly in the No Borders camp. Elect a Jed Bush or a Romney or one of their clones and it will be no different.

Our borders weren’t tightened after 9-11. Instead Dubya tried to ram amnesty through.

So if we have Ebola break out here in the USA due to our sieve like immigration policy I doubt that anything will change other than our death toll.

I am more afraid of the sink areas in public restrooms than most. I won’t touch anything in there, not counters, taps, towel dispensers, etc.

I use sanitary wipes on my hands, and won’t even touch the door going in, or going out.

So, I might be one of those OCD types who won’t wash her hands - try using the wipes or gels, a much safer option in my opinion.

I don’t even trust elevator buttons, shopping cart handles, or the handrails on stairs. My adult children laugh when they see me using my elbows to maneuver in public places.

But, I rarely get sick.

“cannot tolerate vaccinations because of the base used.”

No worry, there is no vaccine.
