Eeeee-bolllll-aaaaaa ping!
Bring Out Your Dead
Were 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...
Pro Tip: Don’t go to Liberia.
Wait. This guy must have known not to touch bodily fluids.
He was just taking photos near infected people apparently.
Seems like it is a lot easier to get infected than we have been told.
I never watch the nightly news shows but for some reason I did the other day and saw this segment. Nancy got all wrapped up in her hazmat suit, but the ungloved and unmasked caregivers were helping her with it! Later she was out of the suit talking with a local doctor who is treating Ebola, but he was accidentally spitting on her while he talked. I was appalled, and frankly I’m not surprised someone from her team is now testing positive for the disease. Idiots!
