The Spanish nurse is named and now the authorities want to put down her DOG.
Daily Mail ^

Posted on 10/07/2014 12:26:58 PM PDT by sunmars

The Spanish nurse who became the first outside of Africa to become infected with Ebola has been named along with her husband.

Teresa Romero Ramos and Javier Limon Romero are being held in quarantine in separate rooms at the same hospital in the Spanish capital.

Ms Romero Ramos, 44, from Galicia in northwest Spain, who is one of the medical team that treated two repatriated Spanish priests who died from Ebola, was diagnosed with the killer disease yesterday.

Their identities came out after Mr Romero asked a Spanish animal charity to start a social media campaign to stop health officials putting his dog down.

Ebola does not appear to be transmissible by mosquito.

They are known in Africa to be asymptomatic carriers of the virus.

But dogs, oh yes, let's kill them just in case. /s

Are you happy? What did you think would happen posting that panicky crap you put up night before last? Couldn't even read the report correctly, had you done so you would have known that not one single instance of Ebola being caught from a dog has ever been documented.

Let the canine pogrom begin. Idiots.

Next up: killing goats, horses and pigs.

Whee, ain't it fun?

... and they're not known for what?

Infecting people with Ebola, that's what.

Well, RegulatoryCountry, since this dog is in a family home, we’ll know with some degree of certainty whether or not Ebola can be passed from dogs to humans within 21 days.

I for one would not take the chance. These people appear to have volunteered to do so.

LOL, like my comment had anything to do with causing any of this. Too funny. Hate to break it to you, but I don’t have anywhere NEAR that kind of influence on people.

LOL again.

By the heading it looks like the innocent doggie wii be shot because the nurse was named. Perhaps they don’t name the nurse so doggie’s life is spared.

You won’t know any such thing because the dog has not been tested. They’re just going to kill it.

The OWNER was exposed. They have no idea whatsoever about the dog.

Got it? I suspect not. This is what you wanted and you’re going to plaster the web with stupid fear mongering.

I’d zot your silly *** if it were up to me. Unfortunately, it’s not.

Oh, I’m sure at some point they will test the dog. And yes, I should have included that caveat that “if the dog has the virus.”

I notice your alter-ego popped on here the same time you did. Still posting that same study and misinterpreting it the same way or have you wised up and changed your wording?

Transfer from a dog bite is technically possible, if the canine saliva harbors viable virons. It may not, as dogs are asymptomatic and the expression through various bodily fluids generally happens after symptoms appear in humans. Not going to speculate on human consumption of dog meat in Africa. Infected dog blood, which might be touched if a person tended to an injured or dead dog, would be infectious. Feces, etc., probably not in an asymptomatic dog.

More like this one...

Contagion (2011)
Healthcare professionals, government officials and everyday people find themselves in the midst of a worldwide epidemic as the CDC works to find a cure. As the contagion spreads to millions of people worldwide, societal order begins to break down as people panic.
