US Airlines scramble after 100s of passengers had contact with Ebola patient
Daily Mail UK ^ | October 1, 2014 | By MICHAEL ZENNIE FOR MAILONLINE and REUTERS

Hundreds of airline passengers were exposed to the Liberian national before he landed in Dallas, last month, as it is revealed that he took at least three flights to get from Monrovia, Liberia to Texas.

Officials announced that Thomas Eric Duncan flew through Brussels to get to Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport - but no airlines operate a direct flight from the European capital to Dallas, meaning he had to take a connecting flight in between.

U.S. officials have refused to release details of his itinerary, including which city he connected through - claiming that none of his fellow passengers are at risk.

Several leading U.S. airlines said on Wednesday they were in close contact with federal health officials about Ebola-related travel.

Airlines for America, the industry trade group, on Wednesday U.S. airlines are in regular contact with the Centers for Disease Control and other government agencies about helping to prevent the spread of Ebola.

NY TIMES: "On Sept 15, Mr. Duncan helped his landlord and his landlord’s son carry the stricken woman to the hospital, his neighbors and the woman’s parents said. She died the next day."

This foreign national rode in a taxi with a woman who died of Ebola. He KNEW he had direct exposure to Ebola 5 days before departing for the US. This is a planned attack on the US.

I can blame him. If he knew - and was willing to potentially kill millions of innocent people, he’s a freakin’ psycho...

Jesus H. Christ. This is the biggest bunch of jerks that I have ever come across. If I had been exposed to ebola and knew that I would probably die in Liberia if I didn’t get my ASYMPTOMATIC self back to the US, you bet your ass I would come back. I would then immediately go to a hospital and inform them that I may have been infected with ebola. Don’t you tell me you would bravely die in Liberia when you weren’t showing symptoms. You would come back and seek medical care and you know it.

So that means that anyone on those 3 flights are a potential victim. Also, it is foolish to think that this is the only individual making the same sabotage run to America.

“The good news, once it Ebola begins to threaten the Obola elite things will happen faster.”

Wrong. The personal medical guys at the CDC will give Obama and his cronies the newly patented anti-dote for Ebola. All conservatives will be denied any meds. This is where Obamacare comes in as they are the gate keepers of all med and treatment.

I can’t blame him for wanting treatment in the US vs. dying in Liberia. I can blame him for putting hundreds more at risk.

So you're stating he absolutely knew he was infected.

You can't have it both ways and not blame him and then blame him.

That don't fly...

That's deadly PC bullshit.

He held her legs on way to hospital, she had convulsions, one of the other people in that taxi has already died and he rented a room from the parents of the pregnant girl in the taxi who died. I would probably have lied to get her too but it still ticks me off. He knew he had to get to USA quick.
And this really pisses me off! The freaking docs the first time game him antibiotics for probable low grade viral infection. Every time you turn on a TV there is a doctor saying do not take antibiotics for viral infections but they prescribe it anyway.

I wonder if he had (or thought he had) protective gear on when he helped carry the woman to the hospital. I wonder when he made the reservation to fly to the US.

The CDC and Obola kept this secret as long as they could.

But why?

Same reason they Quartered tuberculosis and EV-68
and worse in 57 of Obola’s states.

It’s a lesser evil. The one group of people that could have gone national with the dangers of all of this sat silently and let it happen so as not to offend.

People don’t wanna hear it. But it’s the truth. And now we pay for it.

The fact is that this gentlemen didn’t meet any your requirements. He didn’t care who he infected. I presume that you wouldn’t care either.
