Is he really “British,” or was he an African who held a British passport, I wonder. They haven’t confirmed that he had Ebola, but simply that he became sick after arriving in the country on Oct. 2 and died with various ugly symptoms. I wonder if he had been traveling in Africa or was actually from Africa for them to think that it was Ebola?
The Ebola Wars have begun.
Has the CDC added Macedonia and Madrid to the list of places on their “screening” questionnaire? You know, the one they will be using at 5 airports to keep ebola from entering the US
Oh SURE he’s “British”..!
For decades the Left LOOOVED all manner of hyphenation, but now they banish allll of it.
They wouldn’t shut up about “no more melting pot...!!”
They were doing multiculti backflips about it.
Sounds like some people will be getting screaming deals on Priceline...
I.e. the most infectious stage. People who were around the splash zone will be infected, surfaces will be infected for hours, and unprotected healthcare workers will be infected.
Macedonia is part of the old Yugoslavia.
Don’t they know, that according to the CDC, sealing off the hotel will only make the Ebola worse!

Quick, send them Jesse.
British...
White family in England back to William the Conqueror...
or immigrant from Liberia/Africa etc with family neighbors just arrived in the last month from Ebola Country ???
if its the last then its not a mystery how he got Ebola..
British doesn’t mean what we tend to think it means any more...
Airline pilots should start wearing grim reaper outfits.
Fly the deadly skies...Fly Ebola Airlines
The common thread/pattern here? Foreigners, airports, airlines, hotels, and hospitals...
All this just prior to U.S. holiday travel season....
Oh yeah.....
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...
Hecky Durn.
....and another one bites the dust.....
Obama would swing the hotel doors wide open and leave the light on.
Ever see the movie 12 Monkeys?
You just can’t close or quarantine this hotel. What were they thinking? How do the medical workers get in to treat them? Quarantines are inhumane and, depending on circumstances, might even be racist! /sarc
