Obama, Two Weeks Ago: 'Chances of an Ebola Outbreak Here ... Extremely Low'
The Weekly Standard ^ | 9/3o/14 | Daniel Halper

Posted on 09/30/2014 9:11:10 PM PDT by Nachum

President Obama, addressing the ebola outbreak September 16, 2014 at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta:

First and foremost, I want the American people to know that our experts, here at the CDC and across our government, agree that the chances of an Ebola outbreak here in the United States are extremely low. We’ve been taking the necessary precautions, including working with countries in West Africa to increase screening at airports so that someone with the virus doesn’t get on a plane for the United States. In the unlikely event that someone with Ebola does reach our shores, we’ve taken new measures so that we’re prepared here at home. We’re working to help flight crews identify people who are sick, and more labs across our country now have the capacity to quickly test for the virus. We’re working with hospitals to make sure that they are prepared, and to ensure that our doctors, our nurses and our medical staff are trained, are ready, and are able to deal with a possible case safely.

Side effects include death, zombie-ism, rectal bleeding, painful groin rashes, headaches, paralysis, and rarely prevents Obola.

You might not be far off. They are talking about creating vaccine from serum from African survivors which would be "carefully screened" for AIDS and malaria.

Oh, don’t worry. They said it is only spread by direct bodily fluids contact. That’s what they said.

The bigger question should be:

How many more of those infected are they NOT telling us about?

I don’t trust this bunch with ANYTHING. PERIOD!

Obama lied???

Nahhhhh!

The game of Ebola Roulette continues...

*click* spin *click* spin *click* spin…BANG!

Eeeee-bolllll-aaaaaa ping!

Bring Out Your Dead

We’re gonna need

a bigger cart!

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...

She will mandate that all women abort their unborn children, thus stopping Ebola cold.

So, we allowed anybody from any of these Ebola countries without a "temperature" to fly in here and we expected NONE of them would be infected when the incubation period is anything between 2-21 days after exposure and infection before symptoms showed up?

I'd bet a $100 this Patient Zero from Liberia KNEW he was exposed and wanted to get here for medical treatment just in case he was actually infected. He knew we would "take care of him". He was right. Now he has likely infected many more and the disease is loose in America. The ensuing wave of deaths will arrive shortly from those he has infected.

Nice work, Mr. President. The upcoming deaths in the United States rests from your criminal negligence of permitting air flights from these infected countries rests on YOUR head...

Obama would like notyhing better than to see every Red State infected with ebola. Why Texas ...now?

This keeps people from attending the polls.
